Hello everyone,
which documents, protocols, or reports related to the electrical installation need to be handed over to the client after commissioning in a newly built house?
The electrician was contracted by the general contractor. There were some measurement issues during the electrical inspection. Since then, I have not heard anything or received any documentation regarding the electrical installation in our new home. Is there a requirement to provide any documents? Or is it mandatory to prepare documentation? Since I became the operator of the electrical system upon handover of the house by the general contractor, what rights do I have to obtain which documents?
Thank you

I learned in plant construction that documentation requirements should be included in the contract; otherwise, it won’t work out. For our last house, the electrician had to choose at the end: deliver documentation according to the contract, including wiring diagrams, or forfeit the final payment of 25%. He got very upset and gave up the final payment. So, I saved a lot of money, but ended up with no documentation. Well, it has worked out so far.
