So, without attacking the nature of this post. Let me preface by saying that this is strictly informational and I am looking for the best way to procede with the administration at this local high school.
I was brought in as a designer/tech for a local band gala and during the install last night, I noticed two circuits on the raceway where a stage pin connector had welded itself to its receptacle. After breakering off the main, I opened the raceway to remove the female port, hoping to replace it with a new one when I noticed that there was no grounding wire run through it. Since this is a relatively new install (I believe within 10 years) this seemed off to me. The question I have, before I frighten the school administration, is can you think of any reason or loophole within the NEC code that would allow an installer to not run a grounding wire to a receptacle on a raceway?
I want to bring this to the attention of the right people, but I also want to make sure that I have all my ducks in a row before doing so. Thanks!
