§ 150.35 PERMITS REQUIRED AND FEES.
   (A)   It shall be unlawful for any person to install, alter or repair any electrical work covered by this subchapter without first obtaining a permit from the Electrical Inspector. If the cost of an electrical installation is less than two hundred dollars ($200), a permit shall be required but no fee shall be charged. The life of a permit may be extended, if necessary, upon application, but all permits shall be voided within sixty (60) days if the work is not begun within that time. If work for which a permit is required commences prior to obtaining a permit, the fee hereinafter provided shall be double, but payment of such double fee shall not relieve any person from full compliance with the requirements of this subchapter in the execution of the work performed or any other penalties prescribed. Permits shall be issued only to a licensed electrical contractor, except those issued to the county homeowner, or holders of a limited license, issued by the Electrical Examining Board. Special one-time permits may be issued to others for the installation of specialized systems.
   (B)   Electrical construction permit fees are hereby established as follows:
      (1)   Single-Family Residential: $50.00 per inspection
      (2)   Industrial and Commercial: 1.5% of electrical contract
      (3)   Small Commercial: $1.00 per amp (based on size of service enrollment)
   (C)   For the purpose of electrical permit fees each condominium unit shall be considered as single-family residential.
