    Tips

    • CID's published guide does not break out a separate rough-in/final inspection sequence specifically for stand-alone electrical permits the way it does for general building permits — confirm the required inspection sequence for your specific scope of work with the CID Electrical Bureau.
    • A double fee is charged for electrical work started before a permit is secured, per CID's general permitting rules (NMAC 14.5.2).
