Electrical Permits, Inspections & Reviews

Electrical Permits

Electrical Permits are required for all permanent wiring installed in buildings and structures and are issued for work to be completed as listed on the Electrical Permit Application. IT IS MANDATORY TO HAVE A PERMIT BEFORE WORK STARTS. 

The fee cost is based on the bid submitted for the electrical work to be performed and any additional work that is not included on the permit application will not be allowed and an additional permit will need to be pulled. You cannot schedule an electrical inspection without an Electrical Permit. 

For more information, contact Chief Electrical Inspector Butch Gosselin.
