I haven't changed a wall outlet in my home yet, but one of the outlets has been acting up. My husband is considering replacing it himself as it's an easy fix, but I was curious. Do wall outlets fall under permit requirements for house repairs? You technically are doing a repair by replacing it, and it's something an electrician would usually be paid to do.
So, are permits required for a simple replacement like this? Or is it fine to make a small repair like this? I think my husband will do it himself either way, but what happens if he somehow got caught with no permit? I doubt that would happen, but what if?
