We don't need a permit to move the baseboard heater, so no permit for the electric.<br />However we do need/want a new breaker box on the outside of the house but have to wait until the kitchen is done so there is only an inspection on the box itself and not a possible frame rebuild on the kitchen.<br /><br />I was so chapped I ran out of lip balm.Maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04551818740965932334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1648644785345075469.post-30567060541643699482012-12-11T12:36:32.135-08:002012-12-11T12:36:32.135-08:00Amazing in a sad pitiful sort of way.
