Electrical proof that is not just “it lit up”

Inspectors have pet peeves. Owners have Google. You have a phone that can immortalize a torque spec sticker before drywall commits crimes. Shoot the boring stuff: nail plates, recessed IC ratings, derate labels, neutral bars if policy allows photos inside live panels—only when safe and de-energized per your rules.

Mud rings and box fill arguments

Before device install, capture depth, ring stack, cable count entering the box. Drywallers have a gift for making that evidence disappear.

Temp power tells stories

GFCI labels, cord routing, panel knockouts—if it looks sketchy in a photo, fix it before someone else takes the picture.
