Had an interesting encounter with an AHJ this week. He stopped by a jobsite where we're installing CPVC in walls, and found fault with the nail plates we're using. I called to follow up on why he didn't like them, and asked for a code reference. He replied even if it wasn't in the code, he'd enforce nailplates extending further than ours as a safety issue. So I reminded him that his authority was to enforce the PA UCC as adopted, not safety issues he took a personal liking to.
His code reference arrived by USPS this AM. He cited the IPC and IMC as applicable to sprinkler piping, which I disagree with. Any thoughts or previous rulings by other AHJs?
