What are the Federal Laws regarding being the last person to look at a piece of equipment while holding an EPA Universal license when the equipment was faulty and am I obligated to have the piece of equipment repaired or replaced?

Somebody want to make a Federal case out of something you did? :)
Just wanted to know for a customer . No problems with my work. If in doubt I will walk away untill I know what the law states. Would appreciate any info. that you can find.
If in doubt don't trust people on an internet forum.Quote:

Need more information? What is the problem specifically?
I found a 240V steam table that was wired wth 10AWG and spliced into 12AWG into a 20A breaker. The breaker was drawing 17.9 Amps and the box at the steamtable was crispy critters. I know that since I was the last person to look at the equipment, I am legally responsible so I called in a licensed electrician to effect repairs. What is the federal statute and where can I find it?

The question that you're asking is a bit odd.
What does an EPA certification have to do with wiring a steam table?
Also, legal advice is not really given here.
Your EPA only has to do with handling refrigerant.
