Hi all, I interested in this idea of 'violations' - Home Depot/Lowes/Ace Hardware/and many other hardware/electrical stores sell replacement cords for appliances, where you, the homeowner can replace a cord with a new one. Does that void the UL guarantee and NEC (if there is one) guarantee? If it does, that means that those hardware stores are knowingly selling a product, that if used will void guarantee's. Is that correct? Or is this just conjecture?
