Hydro inspection
fees to increase
Ontario Hydro’s electrical in
spection fees will increase on
January 1 for the first time in more
than two years.
Roger Staig, Hydro’s manager of
electrical inspection, said increases
will average 10 per cent, and affect
all residential, commercial and
industrial installations.
Staig said the construction boom
and productivity improvements en
abled Hydro to avoid increases
during the period since October,
1988, but costs have risen to the
point where an adjustment became
necessary.
The new inspection fee for a
typical single detached residence
will be $86, up from the current
$78.
For public safety, the Electrical
Safety Code requires inspection of
all electrical work.
