Dude,
I understand your concern but please in the future, convince the team to go seek help from the lead inspector. We are there to help you run safely and under the rules. It is difficult for even experienced inspectors to catch everything just as it is for a team to read the entire manual. (Yes, strange as it seems, it does happen!) The inspection team can help asses the problem, and will know what other teams that are present may be able to help. The first thing I would have been concerned about was the wire guage. If it was safe for 30 amp (#14 or larger) than why not just insert a 30 amp breaker? If the team would like additional help, please have them contact me via PM so I can give them my email address. If they are coming to Midwest or Milwaukee have them come and see me at the inspection table.
