1.1. Verify that wiring methods used are appropriate for the conditions and occupancy.
1.2. Check panel boards for proper overcurrent protection.
1.3. Check individual and multioutlet branch circuits for proper ratings.
1.4. Check conductors and overcurrent protection for consideration of continuous and noncontiguous loads, multioutlet loads, and minimum ampacity and size.
1.5. Check branch circuits supplying receptacles and other outlet devices for permitted ratings of circuits and receptacles.
1.6. Verify that branch-circuit loads do not exceed maximum permitted loads.
1.7. Verify that branch circuits supplying motors are sized according to Article 430 or 440 and that inductive lighting loads are based on ballast ratings.
1.8. Verify that branch circuits are used to supply only permissible loads based on their ratings.
1.9. Verify that the number of branch circuits is adequate and that the load is evenly proportioned among the branch circuits.
1.10. Check for compliance with branch-circuit voltage limitations.
1.11. Verify that branch circuits for specific loads meet the requirements of the applicable articles.
1.12. Check for proper use and identification of multiwire branch circuits.
1.13. Check for required receptacles and lighting at mechanical equipment and service equipment.
1.14. Check for required outlets or receptacles for show windows and signs.
1.15. Verify that receptacles are provided for all cord-and-plug–connected appliances and where other flexible cords are used.
1.16. Verify that GFCI protection is provided for receptacles in bathrooms, in kitchens, near sinks, outdoors, on rooftops, in indoor wet areas, in locker rooms with showers, and in garages.
1.17. Verify that disconnects are provided at separate structures for branch circuits running between structures.
1.18. Check for adequate size and clearances for outside branch circuits.
1.19. Verify that an identification scheme for ungrounded branch-circuit conductors has been established and made readily available or posted where the premises wiring system has branch circuits that are supplied by more than one nominal voltage system.
