Check out the installation of a motion activated spotlight.

How many code violations can you find? Rolling Eyes Shocked

By the way, that's UF cable coming out of the garage going to NM-B.

Standard romex connector that has been covered in 'putty' for weather protection where it enters the box...

This light was installed on Sunday...

This is probably on a shed that is less than 1,000 square feet so I would think that in PA this would not be a problem at all according to our legislatures. LMAO..........

Good one Jeff!

Actually it is on a detached garage but the garage is 1800+ square feet so it is covered under the UCC. I took photos and gave them to the AHJ in that town...

Sad thing, and I know for a fact, he did absolutely nothing about it.... Rolling Eyes

You should call me sometime, I have a story about your hometown and a HUD project I oversaw. Not something I want to share online.
