    Which building inspector ? The one that works for the government and inspects all of the building jobs. Or the one you hire when buying a home to inspect the house prior to purchase.

    No. Homes are inspected for mostly obvious issues. To inspect for 100% hazards would require tearing out the walls. You have been asking a number of questions that all relate to a wiring fire. Have your questions not been answered yet?
