The post whore thread.

To do this right, you have to do the home run (from your electrical panel) and the electrical panel needs to be capable of this, or it needs to be upgraded, which in turn requires an upgrade to current code of everything downstream.

Does it have to be inspected by a licensed electrician once it's brought up to code standards?

By the permit people, AND a permit pulled prior to repairs.

Does a permit limit the amount of time I can take to complete the work?

Not as i remember. Of course you don't get a sign off till completed. When i had some electrical done, i ran the wire, hung boxes, with the my guy doing hookups etc. If you know one, being able to work with them helps defray some of the cost. That's if they're willing to do so.

Here is the box. At some point, a room (and garage) were built onto this house. The original box was in the garage, which turned into a sub-panel or sorts. Most recently, we hired a guy to come out and ground the outlets in the kitchen and close up the sub-panel and move everything to the main panel in the back of the house. That electrician was the guy who was telling me that I could just run a ground wire, and that was where I originally got that idea. That same guy was also willing to let me work with him and was pretty reasonably priced. As you may or may not be able to see, I've got probably 10 unused breakers in that box. I shouldn't be adding anything, just pulling new stuff. When taking the picture I noticed the full cut off romex in the box, and have no idea what that is about. Also, if I remember correctly, code says you're not supposed to have any romex in the box or conduit piping any more right? What you see in the picture is a combination of other people's work over the years.

Yes. Each jurisdiction is different.
