Yea, I keep on forgetting that for a lot of things out here you need a permit. The one thing I miss about FL. I replaced all of the wiring in one house had a good electrician friend come over took a look at it said it was ABOVE spec and gave it his blessing. I understand when it is a commercial job or something like a res- idential rewire ( I was getting my place ready to add solar panels and separate the low power consumption parts from the high power consumers) but even then to demand a permit for everything is just way beyond what I see as good.
