1. Disciplinary sanctions. In addition to the grounds enumerated in Title 10, section 8003, subsection 5?A, paragraph A, the board may deny a license, refuse to renew a license or impose the disciplinary sanctions authorized by Title 10, section 8003, subsection 5?A for:

Continued failure to conform with applicable regulations of the National Electrical Code, National Electrical Safety Code or of other safety codes that have been approved by the American National Standards Institute or its successor or other organization approved by the board is prima facie evidence of that gross negligence and incompetency; and [PL 2017, c. 198, §13 (AMD).]
