Day 103 – Electrical contractor shows up in force – trim guys still working

by tigers53 on October 27, 2008

The electrical contractor showed up with 4 electricians and 2 more showed up before lunch. Things are happening fast. They still have a lot to do to finish up before the final inspection.

They’ve been putting all of the circuit breakers in the distribution panel. We had a few of them in so we didn’t need to run the generator any more.

Oh, there’s one thing that you need to know. We had the electrical meter set early and then started receiving utility bills for electricity despite the fact that we didn’t use any electricity. Why? The local utility company has a monthly minimum for electrical and gas!

What a joke! I can’t wait until we (customers) have other sources of energy such as solar and wind power. Then the utility companies will actually have to provide customer service and be fair in their pricing structure.

It won’t be long now. The utility companies have taken advantage of us for way too long and the minimum charge is an example of this.

The trim carpenter is moving along quickly. They will be done in another 4 days. Baseboard is going up, the doors and windows are being trimmed out.
