Chapter 20.08 ELECTRICAL CODE
Section 20.08.230 Inspections.
Upon the completion of any installation or alteration of electrical equipment for which
a permit
or license is required, the person, firm or corporation making the installation or alteration shall
notify the inspection services division, and an inspection of the installation or alteration shall be
made within forty-eight hours of the time such notice is received, exclusive of Saturdays,
Sundays and holidays, or as soon thereafter as practical. If the electrical inspector shall find
such
installation or alteration in conformity with the provisions of this code, the inspector shall
approve the installation and authorize connection with the supply of electricity. The electrical
inspector shall send an authorization to the agency supplying the electrical service. If the
authorization is issued for the installation, connection and use of a temporary service, the permit
shall designate the time of expiration but may be revoked by the electrical inspector for cause
before expiration. When any electrical equipment is to be hidden or concealed from view by the
permanent placement of parts of the building, the person, firm or corporation installing the
equipment shall notify the electrical inspector and such equipment shall not be concealed until it
has been inspected and approved or until forty-eight hours, exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays or
holidays, shall have elapsed from the time of the notification; provided, that on any large
installation, where the concealment of equipment proceeds continuously the person, firm or
corporation installing such equipment shall give the electrical inspector notice and inspection
shall be made periodically during the progress of the work. (Ord. 97/U-6146)
