I may take you up on that offer. He never gave me a report so I will contact the ESA for the report.

No report? How long ago did he inspect? Did he mention the report or when he will get it to you? He has to put it in writing.
Phone him up and request the code violation on each failure as well.

His scope is the buildings hard wiring. Cut the cord end off and hardwire it in then he can look at it.

He's not even really allowed to look at anything that was existing before you moved in, just at the changes and additions you made.

He must be a new guy on a power trip. They are the worst.

Did you get a report from the inspector yet? Or any answers from him.

I got the report and nothing on there about unsafe equipment like he said.

I am guessing he reported us to Health Canada because its out of his jurisdiction.

I will just wait for them to contact me and deal with it later.

So you passed inspection then? Or did he fail you for other stuff?

All the electrical work passed but we have 30-days to get our lights approved and then we are off the hook.

Under electrical code or?

We got all the glass delivered for the fish wall on Friday. It's going to be a ton of work to build each one, thats for sure.



We had some help from the crew @ Reef Wholesale to help us lift our 300g DD onto the 42" tall stand. Everything is framed up and ready for drywall!!!

Well what choice did you really have if you asked miracles to build your store they would have told you a hundred thousand.

Xenon, next time get your electrical inspection after all the hard-wiring is done and before you setup any over tank lighting. Your electrical should have been done long before you started moving in tanks, over tank lighting, pumps, etc. There is a whack of equipment that isn't CSA Approved that is in common use in Canada. I haven't heard of anyone having insurance trouble when non-CSA equipment has caused fires like in situations where water drips into a power bar. CSA or not, it's likely to cause a fire if it doesn't trip a breaker in time (yay for GFCI).

I hope you're almost ready to sell some corals! You have a long way to go to get in the black - that's a lot of frags!
