    Congrats on a couple of minor dings on your inspections, but overall passing your inspections. I am sure you are so relieved, enjoy your couple of days off.
    Andrew, you have done so many things to make the inspection day easy:
    * You developed a rapport with your inspector. You contacted them frequently and asked many questions.
    * You turned to those who are professionals in their field of work and picked their brains and listened to some of their advice.
    * You looked up the codes and studied them.
    * You went through and methodically pulled your wire, and ran your pipes.

    It is obvious by watching this video that you are incredibly proud to have passed your inspection with flying colors and you should be. For a homeowner with relatively little experience building new homes the quality of your work is top notch. Obviously the inspector feels the same. You have a stake in the game to do the best quality of work to end up with the best possible home in the end. The vast majority of people in the trades are in it for the paycheck and obviously don’t have a stake in the game for a great result. Im proud of you that you are more concerned about it being done right regardless how long it takes or how much it costs. In the end you will have a home that is exactly what you want and can be very proud of. Keep up the great work.

You are the type of individual that dots the "eyes and crosses the t's" with anything he does. You basically leave nothing to chance and that is a trait that I admire in an individual. As I have said before you and Tiffany will have a Fantastic home to enjoy the rest of your lives and your doing a Fantastic Job. Someday I look forward to maybe shaking your hand as my wife and I get our house sold and get mobile and seeing the country.

    I did a big remodel on a farm in ND 15 yrs ago and called the township to get a building permit and found out I lived in a township that didn’t require any permits other than an electrical permit. The township person actually told me that 48% of townships/parish’s/boroughs in the US do not require building permits. CRAZY!!

      He didn’t luck out at all. The inspectors job is to insure the homeowner gets a home built to the plans and specifications and the contractors don’t cut corners to make more money. It Andrew’s case as the homeowner and the contractor he would just be cheating himself not to do the best job possible. The vast majority of inspectors just want to see a quality job and the inspectors in my experience will go out of the way to help owner builders do a good job.

    Thank You!!!!! Big help on the grounding part. I live in Mexico and most houses are built with horrible wiring due to the fact that people look for the cheapest price. And you don't need an inspection to have the power company connect your house. As well most electricians don't add grounding to the wiring of the house. I'm trying to learn so I can try to rewire my home. Wanting to add a main breaker panel and get rid of the simple fuse box. Problem I had was figuring out the grounding, I know you have to ground your panel but I was confuse on how to do it if the meter box is grounded because here, the power company does require you to ground it. Wasn't sure if I needed one rod for the meter and another one for the panel. But here I got a better idea on doing it. I spent hours watching videos, researching online, but this video was the answer for my question.

    • @TKCL
      @TKCL  Год назад +1

      Here we we are required to ground at the meter panel with #6 copper wire to two 8ft earth ground rods spaced at least 8ft apart. There is also confusion here with some areas requiring meter or main panel grounding. Technically the big neutral Waite from the meter box is connecting ground from the meter box to the main panel. All sub or secondary panels require grounds to be on a separate grounding bar and not connected to the neutrals.

    I knew you would pass with flying colors. You have done such a great job and care so much about your home. I am in Atlanta and if I drip paint on an outlet and want to replace it I have to have an electrician pull a permit, do the work and get it inspected. In my small town inside Greater Atlanta they did away with grandfathering so technically they could do a full house inspection and pull our CO if they were in the mood and found 50 year old issues.

    Hey mate. Well done on the inspection, and congratulations to you, for taking the time to read the code, and to do such an impressive job.
    I don't see the inspector finding things for you to change as a negative to you. Far from it. I see it as a positive that you will know you have a perfect and a very safe house.
    The inspector is there to help you and assist you to interpret the codes. Thankfully you got a really nice guy who really appreciated the study and work you did yourself. All your hard work and dedication to the job IS paying off.
    Be extremely proud of yourself Andrew. We are all super proud of you. Thank you for allowing us to come along for the ride, it has been amazing so far, and we will all be there till the end and beyond.
    Love and best wishes to you, Tiffany and Bullitt (not sure on spelling there) From Jack and Family.

    Good on you for being stand up and honestly expressing your interactions and thoughts with the inspector. That was impressive, BUT knowing you, I would not have expected anything else. Good Job my friend on doing your homework everyday and not staying up all night cramming before the big exam. Congrats too on your views. when I saw that you uploaded an hour ago, there were already 943 views. I was # 944. We gotta work on the likes though, only about 23%. What's wrong with you people? This is great content!

    I don't know if you have done it already but given the length involved which is short, for those cpvc lines to the hot water heater, if you don't want to see them, just run them down from the point they emerge from the house, under the ground and then up to the hot water heater. This has the added benefit of when you get those tropical or hurricane strength winds, they won't blow a heavy object into the horizontal run of that CVPC and possibly break it (I read something years ago that horizontal runs of anything are more vulnerable to weather damage than vertical runs, which makes sense if you think about it). Personally on that side of the house, and take this with the grain of salt that I don't live down there yet, I might be inclined to plant a small grove of protective trees to act as barrier for anything to be blown into that area with the service panel, meter and hot water heater. You could turn it into a decorative sitting area around one of your fire pits to hide its purpose.

    Good morning. Building Permits & Inspectors are kinda ,again kinda like gun laws. Some places are laid back others knit pick the tiniest things.

    I was told I need to bond the neutral and ground in the meter and a second wire going into the breaker panel that also bonds in there I’m confused how that wouldn’t be double bonding also said I’m not allowed to run the ground through the meter and into the house so I had to drill a hole in the side of the house and run the wire through just to finally get power turned back on 😤
