Section 18: RIGHT TO APPEAL FROM DECISION OF INSPECTOR - PROVIDED.
<br /> Whenever the inspector makes a decision, as provided in this chapter, and it
<br /> seems unjust to the owner or occupant of any building, or other person inter-
<br /> ested in such decision, such person shall have the right to apply to the
<br /> 1 inspector for appointment of an arbitration committee, one of the committee to
<br /> be appointed by the inspector, one by the person making the application, and the
<br /> 2 third member of the committee to be chosen by the other two members. The
<br /> decision of the Board shall be final in the matter appealed from. The person
<br /> 3 making application for such arbitration shall, on filing his petition, pay
<br /> Ten (10. 0) Dollars to the inspector, which shall be paid to the members of
<br /> 4 the arbitration committee in full for their services. The application for
<br /> arbitration herein provided for shall be made within five days after notice of
<br /> 5 the decision of the inspector from which the appeal is made,, and if the two
<br /> members of the arbitration committee so appointed fail to agree upon a third
<br /> 6 member, or if the arbitration committee fails to make a report of its decision,
<br /> in writing, to the inspector within ten (10) days after its appointment, the
<br /> 7 decision of the inspector shall be final.

<br /> 10 any pipe, unapproved thermal insulation, structure or material of any kind
<br /> within one inch of open wiring. Nor shall any person place or permit to be
<br /> 11 placed any steam, hot water or hot air piping near any wiring if the temperature
<br /> of such wiring will thereby be increased to more than approved maximum temp-
<br /> 12 erature allowed for such conductors or raceways.
<br /> 13 Section 20: It shall be unlawful for any person to overfuse any
<br /> conductor, motor or apparatus in excess of the maximum allowed by this chapter
<br /> 14 for such conductor, motor or apparatus, or to install any substitute in lieu of
<br /> an approved fuse or circuit breaker, or to interfere with any automatic
<br /> 15 device, so as to reduce the factor of safety of the same.
