Jack Davenport Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 The screws are wrong as they are not the correct cover screws that came with the cover The missing knockouts are wrong also The lack of De-ox ? Not a code requirement or a manufactures requirement. Just a Personal choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Remas Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Panel covers are normally off for the final inspection and the code official can only assume they will be placing the correct screws into the panel cover. NoLox is not a code requirement The empty holed need some blanks. All in all, an easy fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Whitmore Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 What's that wire between the hot/ ground on the right side of the picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Port Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 What's that wire between the hot/ ground on the right side of the picture? That is one of the ground wires going to possibly the water line or a ground rod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bad for not using the proper terminology or writing clearly Jim. I mean the aluminum strand of wire that is between the GEC (copper ground), and the ungrounded conductor (service wire)It's on the right side of the photo, and if it wasn't so long I would think it was a loose strand that almost contacts the ground.
