How does this work when a customer in state 1 and city 2 buys power
equipment from a vendor in state 3 and city 4 and connects it?

I assume that the rules that apply to the connected equipment are the
ones that are in place where the equipment is connected, but what about
the rules that apply to a nation-wide sold equipment?=20

What kind of code-compliance assurance has the buyer? That the equipment
meets codes at the seller's location? Or is there a federal code that
everything must meet (and that overrides local codes)?

Thanks
