8.) Use of electrical equipment without following the manufacturer’s installation instructions.

All too often the information provided on or with electrical equipment is overlooked by the installers. If specific installation requirements are provided by the manufacturer they must be adhered to by the installer. Section 110.3(B) requires that electrical equipment be installed in accordance with any installation instructions that may be included in the listing or labeling. It would be a Code violation to not follow these instructions so don’t throw them away until you have read them.
