Inspection / Permit Information
In Order to Receive Service
Inspection and Permits
All wiring for any building must conform to the requirements of PRVEPA and the National Electric Code and with state, municipal and county inspection requirements.
Most counties served by PRVEPA require flood plain permits for all residences. The state also requires registration for mobile homes, while the city of Hattiesburg requires an electric permit. Where any permits, inspections and registrations are required by law, members applying for service must provide copies of documents showing that they have been applied for, accepted and inspected.
Please check with local city and county building officials and inspectors to see what requirements apply in your country or city.
