Secret I used (pre popular internet) where I was trying to do something the AHJ didn't want me to do. All of the city/county codes are at the main library. Sure it's all online now. In my case they did not want to allow me to take their required city license because I was #1, not union , #2 from NC, and #3 young (25). Went and read up and they had to allow me to take it because it said anyone with a state license could take it and didn't specify what state. I was unlimited rated in NC / SC/ FL/ GA/ TN but not good enough to take the test in Paducah shithole KY?
FYI the test was on an old version of the code so I not only aced it I wrote in the correct answers because their multiple choices were wrong.

Yeah, the inspectors here are working on 2008 code and it's pissing me off.

Electrically no one wanted to adopt the 2014 NEC because of all the added arc faults which still don't work 100% right and I was in places that went off 2011 so damn long I had it memorized. Didn't change until I got to NV and they went to 2017 which I not only had to look up (to make sure something hadn't changed, but also NV has it's own amendments - so I had to look them up too). Kept me on my toes at least.
