I'm a mechanical inspector and have never run into this. I was actually just inspecting a furnace replacement but it was done by a low-income agency contractor. The furnace was basically fine but the home owner mentioned that they installed a new bath exhaust fan (a different contractor for the same agency) and that it never shuts off. Sure enough, they hard-wired it, I'm assuming from the hot end of the light switch as it was merely a replacement of the existing. Still though, she has a legitimate complaint in my book, but I can't seem to find the right code section to back myself up before I call the contractor. Can someone more NEC-minded help me out here? Thanks!
