You also need a separate electrical permit for any new electrical wiring, lighting fixtures, receptacles, electrical services, and rewiring.
When you apply for your permit, you will need to submit plans for the proposed construction, as well as the permit fee.

The review process varies based on how complex the work is, but it will not take longer than 20 working days.

One of the laws regarding contractors in Nebraska is that they have to register with the Nebraska Department of Labor. If you have one or more employee, you need to provide Workers’ Compensation Certificate of Insurance with the Department of Labor listed as the certificate holder. This insurance helps pay for things like medical bills in the case of an injury.
