Keen,
The three section power distribution block is/was not a legal substitution for the Rockwell block in either 2007 or 2008. The Rockwell block makes that part obsolete and redundant if you plan to use both. If you passed inspection, you had a sympathetic inspector. If you wish to discuss this, would you mind a PM exchange?
