§ 30-130. Electrical inspector.

The Chief Inspector and each of the duly appointed inspectors of the New York Board of Fire Underwriters or another approved electrical inspection service are hereby authorized to make inspections and reinspections of electrical wiring installation, devices, appliances and equipment in and on properties within the Town of Brookhaven where they deem it necessary for the protection of life and property and to approve or disapprove the same. The electrical inspectors shall make such inspections and reinspections as may be requested, in writing, by the Chief Fire Marshal and Chief Building Inspector and, in the event of an emergency, shall make such inspections as may be requested orally by an officer of the Town of Brookhaven. It shall be the duty of the electrical inspectors to furnish written reports to the Chief Fire Marshal and Chief Building Inspector and the owners and/or lessees of property where defective electrical installations and equipment are found on inspection and to authorize the issuance of a certificate of compliance when electrical installations and equipment are in conformity with this article. The Chief Building Inspector may authorize organizations other than the New York Board of Fire Underwriters to make inspections and reinspections of electrical wiring installation, devices, appliances and equipment, provided that said inspection organizations annually submit proof of insurance in such form and amounts as is deemed satisfactory by the Town Board, naming the Town of Brookhaven as a named insured.
