No person, firm or corporation shall install, <br /> alter, replace or extend any electrical work or equipment except <br /> 3 replacement of kind or as provided for in "Work Started Without a <br /> Permit" without first obtaining a separate electrical permit for <br /> 4 each installation, alteration, replacement or extension from the <br /> Building Official. <br /> 5 <br /> (b) Application. To obtain a permit the applicant shall first file an <br /> 6 application therefor in writing on a form furnished for that <br /> purpose. Every such application shall: <br /> 7 <br /> 1. Identify and describe the work to be covered by the permit <br /> 8 for which application is made; <br /> 9 2. Describe the land on which the proposed work is to be done, <br /> by house and street address; <br /> 10 <br /> 3. Indicate the use or occupancy for which the proposed work <br /> 11 is intended; <br /> 12 4. Be accompanied by plans and specifications as required in <br /> Subsection (d) of this section. <br /> 13 <br /> 5. State the valuation of the proposed work; <br /> 14 <br /> 6. Be signed by the permittee; <br /> 15 <br /> 7. Give such other information as reasonably may be required <br /> 16 by the Building Official. <br /> 17 (c) To Whom Permits May Be Issued. A permit may be issued to <br /> contractors licensed to do electrical installation as is provided in <br /> 18 RCW 19.28. <br /> 19 (d) Plans and Specifications. With each application for a permit, and <br /> when required by the Building Official for enforcement of any <br /> 20 provisions of this Code, two sets of plans, service diagrams, <br /> specifications, and other information deemed necessary by the <br /> 21 Building Official, shall be submitted. The Building Official may <br /> require plans and specifications to be prepared and designed by an <br /> 22 electrical engineer or electrical contractor licensed by the State to <br /> practice as such. The plans shall be drawn upon substantial paper <br /> 23 or cloth and shall be of sufficient clarity to indicate the nature and <br /> extent of the work proposed and show in detail that it will conform <br /> 24 to the provisions of this ordinance and all other relevant laws, <br /> ordinances, rules and regulations. <br /> 25 <br /> (e) Plan Checking. The application, plans and specifications filed by <br /> 26 the applicant for a permit shall be checked by the Building <br /> Official. If the Building Official is satisfied that the work <br /> 27 described in an application for a permit and the plans filed <br /> therewith conform to the requirements of this ordinance and other <br /> 28 pertinent laws and ordinances and that the required fee has been <br /> paid, he may issue a permit therefor to the applicant. <br /> 29 <br /> (f) Validity. The issuance or granting of a permit or approval of <br /> 30 plans and specifications shall not be construed to be a permit for, <br /> or an approval of, any violation of any of the provisions of the <br /> 31 ordinance. No permit presuming to give authority to violate or <br /> cancel the provisions of this ordinance shall be valid, except <br /> 32 insofar as the work for which it authorizes is lawful. <br /> -3- <br />
