It depends on where you are. Some states and provinces license low-voltage or limited-energy work (California’s C-7 low voltage classification and Washington’s limited energy specialty are examples) and many cities require permits. Ask the firm which licence and permits apply to your job.
What should we get when the cabling is finished?
Labelled cables and patch panels, test results for every run and a floor plan showing where each run goes. Those records make later changes and fault-finding much faster.
