Would you let us know where you are located? Testing varies widely, so if someone can help you, it's best that it be someone near you who knows the ropes.

I, for one, don't know what you mean by 16 and 17......

Well, I thought maybe he was talking about MasterPlanner numbers, but that got changed a few years ago, and electrical is no longer Div. 16.

Either that, or Lisle and Rolph were singing in the gazebo again.

Not only were we bound by Div 16 old specs, but the specs included California specs in Flordia. Did we need their earthquake specs here? Took many pages of correspondence to get relief.

Best Wishes Everyone
