No alterations, additions or extensions shall be made in any electrical installation without first obtaining a permit from the Chief Electrical Inspector and submitting the same for inspection in the manner provided for new work.
The Chief Electrical Inspector is hereby authorized to refuse to issue a permit for any addition or extension to any wiring system in or on any building where, in his estimation, the wiring is in an unsafe condition. If, after a permit is issued, the work covered by the permit, or any old work in the building not covered by the permit, is found, for any reason, to be in an unsafe condition, the Chief Electrical Inspector may refuse to issue a certificate of approval and the owner of the building or the occupants thereof and all electric light and power companies shall be notified not to have connections made nor to connect to any building without having such certificate of approval or written permission from the Chief Electrical Inspector. If these additions and alterations have been made to an installation already connected, then all owners of buildings or occupants thereof and all electric light and power companies shall disconnect their service immediately upon notice to do so.
