TN an eviction/ NEC electric violations

Al Smith
Posted

What are the steps to be taken when a tennant in Tn has violated NEC codes via overloading circuits an daisy chaining strip outlets,permanently using extention cords off a strip,etc in a very unsafe way.Can you evict them for adding them without your permission when lease states it must be approved 1st.? 

If they were warned in writing  an after reinspected in 7 days an nothing changed ,still many wiring violations,can i evict them w 15 day notice for not conforming to NEC code an local building safety/ fire laws.

I own the unit beside them also which is in danger if there is fire .

last week the microwave smoked or short circuited due to their negligence w overloading.I then sited an gave warnings on th he many violations..I want them out as soon an legally as allowed by law.There is noncompliance.

Thanks
