Inspection Checklist
Generally, Minnesota law requires all electrical work to
be performed by licensed, bonded, and insured
electrical contractors and their employees.
Homeowners, within strict limitations, are exempt from
Electrical licensing.
An owner is a natural person who physically
performs electrical work on premises
the person owns and
actually occupies as a residence
or owns and will occupy as a residence
upon completion of construction.
Minnesota Statues 326.01, Subd. 6e
A separate request for electrical inspection form
with the required fees must be submitted
to the Board of Electricity
at or before commencement of any electrical
installation that is required by law to be inspected.
Installers of electrical wiring shall schedule a
final inspection when the electrical work is
completed, prior to the electrical wiring being
utilized and the associated space occupied.
CONTRACT INSPECTOR
Minnesota State Board of Electricity
Nicollet-Le Sueur County Inspector
Chris Gappa
507-327-6078
INSPECTORS ARE AVAILABLE WEEKDAYS ONLY
Between 7:00 am and 8:30 am
When an owner files a Request for Electrical Inspection form and inspection fees with the Board of Electricity or other electrical inspection authority,
that person is signing an affidavit that they own and occupy the residence and that they personally and physically will perform all of the electrical
work, including the laying out of such work.
It is illegal for an owner to install electrical wiring in mobile home or recreational vehicle parks, or on property that is rented, leased, or occupied by
others.
01 Minnesota Rules 3800.3770 A ROUGH-IN INSPECTION
must be made before any wiring is covered by insulation, sheetrock, paneling, or
other materials. Underground wiring must be inspected to assure the minimum burial depth.
02 Where wiring is concealed before inspection,
the person responsible for concealing the wiring shall
be responsible for all costs resulting from
uncovering and replacing the covering material.
Minnesota Rules part 3800.3770
Except for the final connection to switches, receptacles, and lighting fixtures, all ground wires and other wires in boxes must be spliced and pigtailed
for the rough-in inspection. A FINAL ELECTRICAL INSPECTION
is required when all wiring has been completed and all devices, lighting fixtures,
and appliances have been installed and tested.

Electrical Inspection Fees
The minimum fee for each separate inspection of an installation, replacement, alteration, or repair is $20.
The inspection fee for the installation, addition, alteration, or repair to a service, change of service, temporary service, generator or other power
supply source or feeder shall be per the chart below.
Each Service, Generator or Other Source Of Supply
0 to and including 400 amps @ $25
401 to 800 amps @ $50
The inspection fee for the installation, addition, alteration, or repair of each circuit or feeder, feeder tap, or set of transformer secondary conductors
including the equipment served, shall be per the chart below:
Each Circuit or Feeder
0 to and including 200 amps @ $5
Over 200 amps @ $10
The TOTAL fee cannot be less than
$20 for each required inspection trip.
ONE & TWO FAMILY DWELLINGS, EACH UNIT
Includes the Service/Power Supply up to 500 Amperes,
All Circuits, and Two Inspection Trips

Additional Inspection Trips @ $20
Example 1: For a residential air conditioner installation involving one circuit and one inspection trip the
electrical inspection fee is $20, the minimum fee.
For a project where more circuits or feeders (rated less than 200 amps) are involved, the fee is calculated by multiplying the number of Circuits
installed or altered by $5.
Example 2: For a detached structure that involves the installation of a feeder ($25) and 2 circuits ($10) requiring an inspection of the
wiring to be concealed and a final inspection, the inspection fee is $40, the cost of two inspection trips.
58 Minnesota Staute 326.2441 Whenever a re-inspection is necessary to determine whether unsafe conditions have been corrected, a re-
inspection fee of $20 may be assessed in writing by the inspector.
The above fees apply generally. Fees for other specific
Types of installations apply as identified in
