On Day 18, the electrical rough-in phase begins, during which electricians install the primary wiring systems before walls and ceilings are enclosed. This includes running conduits and electrical cables through studs and joists to reach outlets, switches, fixtures, and the main electrical panel. All wiring is strategically positioned according to the building’s electrical plan, ensuring easy access to future connections. Junction boxes, circuit breakers, and grounding wires are securely mounted to meet safety codes. This stage does not include installing light fixtures or final outlets, but rather lays the foundational infrastructure that will power the entire building. Electricians coordinate with plumbers and HVAC technicians to avoid conflicts in the framing structure. Inspections are scheduled after rough-in to verify compliance with national electrical standards before insulation and drywall are installed. This critical step ensures a safe, efficient, and code-compliant electrical system that supports all future lighting, appliances, and technology needs in the building.
