The sub-panel for circuit breakers got installed to the left of the main panel. This is because I have "too many circuits" per the electrical contractor. In terms of "extra" circuits, I have a 50 amp circuit for a hot tub (2 positions), a dedicated circuit for a second refrigerator / freezer in the utility room, and a dedicated 20 amp circuit in the garage for my power tools. It appears that they are running eight circuits to the sub-panel, all 15 amp lines.
A carpenter was out working on "do over" work on one of the trusses today. He said that there was a problem that the Builder had noted on the "bearing surface" at one of the rear walls.
Also, either yesterday or today the recessed opening for the kitchen refrigerator was adjusted.
Because there was no other work going on I was able to do a detailed inspection of progress to date. We've scheduled our pre-drywall walk through for Tuesday. I've found some minor issues that should be readily correctable next week. In fact, I'll bring my hammer and pliers and we may be able to do some of them as we do the walk through. The most significant issue is a window that was supposed to be tempered glass, but is not. I suspect that they can just change the panels and not the frame to fix this. Most of my issues are just minor alignment items such as recessed lights that are a few inches off being lined up in a row, or outlets that need to be moved a bit.
My builder, Cliff, called me this afternoon and also emailed to me. As soon as the replacement guest bath tub is installed, he will get the rough plumbing and framing inspection. Then he will get the interior insulation done and inspected. The thermal and hvac smoke test are scheduled for 8/21. Then, on to drywall.
