ᐅ Not all electrical cables were installed in conduit! What can be done?

Hello everyone,

Our construction is actually progressing quite well. However, while reviewing the building specifications, I came across the point: "All cables will be installed concealed within conduit (except in the utility room, where they are surface-mounted)."

Since everything is monitored through the building supervisor, but I take daily photos, I just double-checked, and the pictures clearly show that conduits were only used on the floor.

The electrical, satellite, and network cables were all run inside the walls at a certain height and then covered with plaster.

Now the plaster and screed are already in place, and I’m wondering, will they have to break it all open again and redo the work? I really don’t want to have to break everything open just because of a cable fault later on!

What can or should I do now?

Best regards, Frank

Not even Cat7 sockets are being installed anymore.

No, because Cat7 is not a standard "Western RJ45" connector, which would cause compatibility issues.

That’s what I meant. Cables are installed with future possibilities in mind.

However, the cable for the future outlet must also be long enough!
