1.1. Verify that all switching is done in the ungrounded conductors.
1.2. Verify that any switches in wet locations are properly installed in weatherproof enclosures.
1.3. Verify that switches are located not over 6 ft. 7 in. (2.0 m) high and that they can be operated from readily accessible places unless otherwise permitted.
1.4. Verify that the voltage between adjacent grouped or ganged devices is not over 300 volts or that barriers are installed.
1.5. Verify that metal switch boxes, switches, and any metal faceplates are grounded.
1.6. Verify that switches or receptacles in boxes have their plaster ears seated against the wall surface or the box.
1.7. Verify that switches and receptacles are used within their ratings.
1.8. Verify that general-use dimmers are installed only for control of permanently installed incandescent lighting.

1.10. Check receptacles in wet or damp locations for proper covers and enclosures and weather-resistant ratings.
1.11. Verify that isolated ground receptacles are properly identified and connected to isolated grounding conductors.
1.12. Check that receptacles project from metal faceplates or are flush with nonmetallic faceplates and that the faceplates cover openings.
