Hello everyone,

Which tasks are absolutely necessary for the electrician during the shell construction phase?
I believe the main priority is the main electrical connection, that is clear to me.

My situation is that I am just starting the electrical planning now, but the shell construction will begin in the next few weeks (I won’t be finished that quickly).
I plan to do the chasing myself, as that allows for flexibility and can be done once the shell is up... but what SHOULD definitely be done by a professional electrician while the builder is constructing the shell?

Best regards
B

Our electrician wanted the plan for lamps, sockets, etc. before the precast ceiling was installed because he laid cables there for the upper and lower floors.

I would discuss this with the electrician beforehand. Everything you can recess into the ceiling is out of the way elsewhere and might save you one or two chases.

You need the electrician right at the beginning for the grounding before the foundation is poured! It must be done correctly and documented. This is required for registering the house with the utility company.

Hello... we are also building through a developer and now we have the following problem.
The grounding was not installed or inspected according to the new regulations!

Before everything started, I was looking for an electrician myself instead of immediately agreeing to use the one provided by the developer.
Now the grounding (done by the shell builder) was installed with the wrong clamps, and there was no professional inspection. So there is no documentation..? I am referring to "DIN 18014-2014-03."

Later, a ring grounding electrode is supposed to be installed.

The fact is... where do I get the documents?
Am I responsible now?

What exactly was done, and how was it carried out?
