Filing Complaint Against AWOL Electrician
We hired an electrician in 10/2010 to upgrade our panel and upgrade some electrical outlets in the house and add some outside outlets. So far, he has put the new panel box, but no breakers in as of 5/2011. We have been trying to call, but he does not respond to calls. Tried emailing, but the email came back. I would like to know if we should start looking for another electrician and file a complaint with the contractors license board on this current electrician.
Can the building inspector require me to replace the wiring?
I recently had a new boiler installed in the basement of a rental property which required the city building inspector to come in and inspect. Unfortunately I was not there as I live out of state but the company that installed the boiler and my tenant were with him. During his inspection he noticed that my basement wiring may not be up to code. I'm not 100% sure what is going on but he mentioned to my tenant something about an electrical inspection. I know it would be wise to replace my wiring if it is outdated and not up to code but my question is, can the building inspector require me to replace the wiring? What if I honestly can't afford it at the given time?

How much would an electrical room cost per square foot?
I'm working on a large housing development and there is a question about how much it would cost to replace all the equipment for a 100 sqft electrical room. The development is a single large two story building at about 40,000 square foot. I'm not an electrician and I cannot find anything about a general cost for an electrical room because everything is considered in components and systems not total cost.

Electrical Load Calculators
I'm doing a home addition in Minnesota (a small bathroom) and I want to know the right way to perform an electrical load calculation for the box. I've priced commercial electrical load calculation software and it's more expensive than I thought. Do you know of any online load calculators?
