exterior main panel 200 amp. The electrician used the main lugs to run power to a new package HVAC. The three pic show the situation. The electrician gave the OK after I called it out. I need to know if I was right or wrong for calling this out.

Nope, those lugs aren't rated for more than one conductor. Very few box lugs are. It would have been so easy to pop a breaker in that meter-main and do it right since it's empty and all. Bunch of retards. Looks like something they'd so in the country of Arkansas.
