What Happens Before Your Electrical Inspection?

If you’ve hired us for a panel upgrade, remodel, or new circuits, there’s a good chance an inspector will be stopping by. Here’s what goes on behind the scenes, and how you can help it go smoothly.

1. The permit comes first.
Before any work starts, we pull a permit with your local jurisdiction. It’s what makes the inspection happen, and it protects you. Permitted, inspected work matters for your safety, your insurance, and when you sell your home.

2. We do our own check before the inspector does.
Before we call for inspection, we walk the job ourselves: connections tight, boxes secured, wire properly supported, breakers sized right, grounding and bonding in place, GFCI and AFCI protection where it’s required, and the panel labeled clearly. We’d rather catch something ourselves than have the inspector find it.

3. Rough-in vs. final.
Many jobs get inspected twice. The rough-in happens before walls are closed up so the inspector can see the wiring. The final happens once devices, covers, and fixtures are installed and everything’s powered up. If you’re remodeling, please don’t let drywall go up until rough-in passes!

4. How you can help on inspection day:

Clear a path to the electrical panel and any work areas
Keep pets secured
Make sure someone’s available to let the inspector in (we’ll let you know the window)
Leave the permit card posted where the inspector can see it

5. What if something doesn’t pass?
It happens, and it’s not the end of the world. We fix the items noted and schedule a re-inspection. You’ll know exactly what was flagged and what we did about it.

An inspection is a second set of trained eyes on the work in your home. We welcome it.

"Can't you just put in a bigger breaker?" We hear it a lot, and the answer is no. Here's why.

A breaker isn't there to protect your microwave or space heater. It's sized to protect the wire inside your walls. A 20-amp breaker on wire rated for 15 amps lets that wire run hot long before the breaker trips, and that heat is hidden behind drywall where you can't see it.

If a breaker keeps tripping, it's telling you something: too much on one circuit, a bad appliance, or a fault in the wiring. The real fix is finding the cause or adding a new circuit.

Breaker tripping at your place? Call C&D Electric at (509) 331-3433 and we'll find out why.

Power out and the generator's running? Please don't plug it into a dryer outlet with a double-male "su***de cord." It can send deadly voltage back down the power lines to the crews working to get your lights back on, and it can start a fire in your home.

The safe way is an inlet box outside, plus an interlock kit or transfer switch at your panel. It locks out utility power before generator power can come in, so only one can be on at a time.

Winter storms are coming. Get it installed now, permitted and inspected, so you're ready before the next outage.

Call C&D Electric at (509) 331-3433 to get set up.

Pro tip: put each layer on its own switch or dimmer so you can set the mood for cooking, entertaining, or movie night.
