(a) Each permit shall be entitled to four inspection trips when the job is of a type requiring an inspection before covering or concealing the work. On jobs which may be completely inspected on one inspection trip, two inspection trips will be allowed.
EXCEPTION: The number of inspection trips will not be limited on progress jobs; provided, however, that only one inspection will be permitted for checking a correction. For the purpose of this section, progress jobs are those where circumstances beyond the control of the qualified installer make it impossible for the electrical work to be completed at any specific time.
(b) If more inspection trips than are specified in Subsection (a) of this section are required due to fault or error on the part of the qualified installer or his employees, an additional fee as specified in LAMC Section 98.0412(b) shall be paid for each such additional inspection trip. (Amended by Ord. No. 185,587, Eff. 7/16/18.)
(c) Corrections shall be completed within 30 days of the date of issuance of a written notice to the qualified installer by the Department. Installations on which a written notice has been issued shall be rechecked by the Department after 30 days have elapsed from the date of issuance of the notice.
(d) The Department may recheck installations upon which violations continue to exist at intervals of 30 days or more until either the violations are eliminated or a total of three rechecks are made. The fees specified in Subsection (b) of this section shall apply for each recheck inspection.
(e) The fees charged under this section are in addition to any other fees shown in this Code and the payment of the fees required by this section shall not exempt any person from compliance with other provisions of this Code, nor from any penalty prescribed by law. (Amended by Ord. No. 185,587, Eff. 7/16/18.)
(f) Whenever special enforcement procedures are required to obtain compliance with properly executed Department notices or orders, a fee, as specified in LAMC Section 98.0407, shall be assessed in addition to the added trip fee specified in Subsection (b) of this section. (Amended by Ord. No. 185,587, Eff. 7/16/18.)
