What must be in place for a final inspection to occur in a mechanical system?

For a final inspection to occur in a mechanical system, the completion of the mechanical system is essential. This means that all components have been installed according to the plans and specifications, ensuring that the system is operational and safe for use. The purpose of a final inspection is to verify that the system not only meets the design specifications but also complies with all relevant codes and regulations.

While submitting inspection fees, obtaining design approvals, and having copies of building codes are important aspects of the process, they do not directly pertain to the readiness of the mechanical system for inspection. The focus of a final inspection is primarily on the status and functionality of the completed system rather than on procedural steps that precede completion. Thus, the mechanical system must be entirely finished and operational to facilitate an accurate and comprehensive inspection.
