What occurs during the trim-out phase?

During the trim-out phase, the primary focus is on the installation and termination of devices and fixtures. This phase typically follows the rough-in phase, where the basic wiring and structure for electrical systems are completed.

The trim-out involves attaching and connecting the final components, such as switches, outlets, light fixtures, and other devices to the wiring that has already been installed. This is where electricians ensure that all devices are properly secured, connected to the electrical supply, and fully functional. The attention to detail during this phase is crucial as it directly impacts the safety and performance of the electrical system.

Ensuring that devices and fixtures are installed correctly is essential for meeting electrical codes and providing reliable service. Therefore, this step is pivotal in the overall process of electrical installation, culminating in a fully functioning electrical system ready for use.
