Hey! I *don't* resemble that remark. In my experience, it's commonly the
owner or the equipment mfgr with their head up their a$$. I've seen some
scarey stuff in my few years in the trade. (And you can put a 15 amp plug
on a 30 amp circuit-- see NFPA 70 (2002) article 210.21(B)(3) exception no.
2 --not that it comes up often!)
