Friends, we are in the process of renovating.
What do you think about the quality of the electrical work according to the pictures the contractor sent us?

A. The catchers of the wires that press 2 wires together tightly shows a not super super professional work.
B. It is best for the electric box to come out a quarter of an inch and take into account the thickness of the drywall (half an inch)
C. The GFCI has such a tester that when you put it in an outlet, it checks if it is GROUNDED if it does, it bounces the switch in the breaker box.
4. It is forbidden to pay the electrician a large percentage of the work before the permit is closed. Otherwise it went on you, there is nothing they hate like going back to fixing things the Infector remarked on them. Successfully
In my opinion you need an immediate paid supervisor or project manager.
If you are not a professional or have very much experience in renovations, then you do not have the tools to criticize the work, macro or remotely…
Successfully.
Note the location of the boxes, they appear to be installed too deep
If you are doing a full demo for a band-aid then there is a bump on the box that marks the correct position, size and the layover
Need to install more prominent, in any case you can always use longer screws, before the inspection you should install Guard on the tree
Do not know where it is in my areas do not need a sleeve inside
Ask him to put an iron plate on the 4 × 2 each time the electrical wire passes through the wood.
I very much hope you are doing electricity with a license
Wait. Do you do the electrical work on the license? So there's an inspector who needs to approve the job no?
In addition to what you have already written down, the catchers look a little too tight.
Do not apply pressure to electrical wires!
Causes warming and can cause fire
The whole function of the catcher is to fix the cable in a place that will not interfere with closing / damaging tools. The wire should "run" freely
Is the renovation done with a permit?
According to the pictures, overall standard (and basic) but in such a job the contractor sends what he chooses, but to find a problem you have to see all the work… Maybe he can send a video?
Michael Assido seems to me worth closing the wall before putting on a cover
According to the type of Romex (power cable) there is an extension in the power wires. Ask the electrician if the electrical cabinet is connected to the extension. There is no section of breakers here, in the electrical cabinet the extension wire is concentrated above or below the breakers (depending on the type of cabinet) and is attached to a piece of metal that is attached to the ground (map word ground)
What I did not like was that he used the same catcher for one cable and in another case he used the same catcher for three cables. There are special catches to catch a set of cables, a bit more expensive.
With us they are mandatory to use, do not know what your code is

Why is there no coverage for ARQ FAULT GFI?
You asked if he uses
TEMPURE RESISTANT OUTLETS?
Is there GROUNDING or needs to be installed
BREAKERS
In the electrical panel?
standard. But the contractor sends pictures ..? Good luck.
Looks completely standard
