Not to argue with you but, The way I read it, The InterNACHI® member shall be fair, honest and impartial To be “partial to” or “partial toward” someone or something is to be somewhat biased or prejudiced, which means that a person who is partial really only sees part of the whole picture.
I: Duty to the Public. This would pertain to clients.
The InterNACHI® member shall be fair, honest and impartial, and act in good faith in dealing with the public. By referring a single box stores in general is wrong in my opinion. It becomes an information bias. By referring to an certified electrical parts distributors allows an unbiased collection of certified electrical parts distributors.
You point out in a recent thread. “You got that right, I was there this week and in the plumbing isle, they must of had like 10 drum traps there just waiting to be bought. They are not legal to use in Maine. All kinds of material don’t meet local codes in that store.”
Marcel. You have to explain what cartridge fuse and the ampacity to purchase. How do they know?
In essence you are advising the client on what electrical equipment to purchase thus avoiding using a licensed electrical contractor to evaluate and rectify any defects.
Just my thoughts.
