I know electrical work usually has to be approved somehow, but I’m not clear on whether the permit is for the city, the building owner, the utility company, or all of them. If anyone has handled a commercial rewire before, could you share what permits you had to get and any tips that made the process go smoother?

I know how to read a basic breaker panel, but I am not sure what the best way is to balance the loads without causing nuisance trips or creating a problem with the motors. Could people who have dealt with this in a shop setting share how they approach phase balancing and what signs to watch for?

We’ll have lighting, a few display cases, some point-of-sale equipment, a back room fridge, and maybe one or two future items we haven’t bought yet. I’m not sure how to estimate the total load, what needs to be on separate circuits, or how much spare capacity I should leave, so if anyone has done this for a shop buildout, please share your advice and tips.

The route has a mix of wall mounts, rooftop sections, and some areas exposed to weather and possible physical damage, so I’m not sure whether I should be using PVC, EMT, rigid metal, or something else. If you’ve done outdoor commercial installs before, what would you choose and what mistakes should I avoid?

The office will have basic lighting, receptacles, a few computers, a copier, and a small HVAC unit, and I want to make sure I’m not undersizing it or buying a panel that’s bigger than necessary. Could people with experience share how they approach the calculation and what details they usually check first?
