Default Passed Electrical Inspection

The mast for the electric is all installed and all the wiring is inspected and passed. The electrician is trying to get an appointment for next week to switch the power to the new service. Then I can get the building inspector here to inspect so I can get my occupancy permit. Then when the car is done I will be ready to bring it home.
Here's a small update

Looking good Wayne. We got pounded with 22 inches of snow plus killer drifts. Your roof doesn't look to bad, did you get as much as us in north east jowsey?

Any recent news from Mike on the car?

Looks awesome Wayne. I was going to ask if there were any updates earlier today. You beat me to it.
(Rich, I'm about 30 minutes from Wayne and we got about 18-20 inches here. Some nasty winds and some snow drifts as well. Is it summer time yet?!? )

Thanks Rich; We didn't get as much as you or Tony but it was still 16.5" but the temps have been above freezing so we're getting some good melting. We had gusts to 60 mph for two days . It was beautiful here today almost 45 and sunny.
Mike is going to take care of raising the floor for the Transmission before he paints it just to make sure I have enough room. But still no pick up date.

Nothing new Tony; The electrician is still waiting for the power company to give him a date to swap the power back to perminent service.
I called the door guy yesterday, he's just waiting for the highlift kit to get here, he said he's ready to install it when it gets here. When these two things are done I can call for final inspection.

Everything is looking great Wayne. You are on the home stretch now. Its a great feeling when you get that OC. You can then relax and take a breath.

Thanks Jay. I just got a call today the power company is going to change the power from temp to permenant next Wednesday at 8:30 am.
Then I got a call form the door guy he said the high lift tracks should be here Friday and we can install them next week. Its either nothing or everything. Not that I'm complaining.

I say hallelujah . We have permenant power!
The electrician showed up at 8:15 and killed the temporary power at the meter. Then he went downstairs in the cellar and connected the power from the panel in the garage and seperated the whites from the neutrals in the house panel. The power company showed up and changed the power from the temp pole to the mast on the garage and installed the meter. The electrician put the cover on the panel in the garage and they were done. All before 10:00 am
The inspector showed up later in the day and passed it, so we're golden!
When the power company truck showed up the sun came out and the clouds split like the parting of the red sea.
I have an appointment for Friday morning to install the gutters and down pipes. If it doesn't snow. Them the door guys is coming in the afternoon ot install the highlift tracks and the Liftmaster 3800 opener. That should get me to where I can call for the building inspector to come check it out.
Here are a few pictures.









Plenty of room for expansion!


And the new meter.


My wife is already asking when I'm taking the temp power pole down. Not in too much of a rush. lol
