Is it time to upgrade?

• Electrical service & distributionCurrentLast permitted 2018 (8 years ago). City inspection record: last recorded inspection 2018-09-19; no approved final is shown. Worth reading the permit itself: it names the service but does not read as an increase in capacity, so this may have been a like-for-like replacement rather than an upgrade. Separately from replacement: NFPA 70E expects the arc-flash study to be reviewed at least every five years, or after any change to the service. T18RW03511 — 6LF IN FRONT OF THE ADDRESS IN THE ASPHALT FOR NEW SERVICE INSTALL
• Heating, cooling & mechanicalNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Worth knowing: a 2005 pool / spa permit is on file — work like this is often folded into a larger permit without being named, so open that record and check its scope before concluding anything. Packaged rooftop units work harder in Tucson than almost anywhere, so 12 to 15 years is a realistic service life rather than the 15 to 20 the industry quotes. Worth confirming from the equipment nameplate rather than the record. Replacing a rooftop unit is also an electrical question: the new unit's minimum circuit ampacity and its disconnect often differ from the old one.
• Fire alarm & life safetyNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Any alarm or sprinkler work here predates this feed. For an occupied commercial building that is worth confirming from the panel and the inspection tags rather than assuming.
• RoofNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Roof age matters electrically too: it sets what can be penetrated for new rooftop units, conduit, or solar.

A found permit means a lot. A missing one means less. We read the City of Tucson’s own permit file, not a recent extract of it — back to about 2006, and into the 1990s on properties with that much history. Microfiche before then was never fully digitised. Every record links to the city’s official file. A blank line does not say nothing was done: work gets done without permits all the time. The only way to know what is actually installed is to look at it.

What that usually means electrically

• Era-based check

  NFPA 70E expects arc-flash studies to be reviewed at least every five years, or after any change to the service. Buildings this age often have labeling that no longer matches the installed gear. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Worth confirming

  A pool or spa was permitted in 2021. Pool equipment brings its own bonding grid, GFCI requirements, and usually a subpanel — and the bonding rules have tightened since, so older installations are worth verifying.

• Worth confirming

  There is an electrical reconnect permit from 2013. The service was disconnected at some point and brought back — usually after a vacancy, a utility disconnect, or work that required the power off. Worth knowing what prompted it.

• Routine

  Office and medical tenant improvements are usually limited by available panel spaces and branch circuit capacity, not by the service itself.

Recorded sales (1)

Recorded sales are the sales the Pima County Assessor has on file from affidavits of property value — not every transfer, not listings, and not a valuation. Parties are never shown here. A sale with no permitted electrical work since is worth knowing before the next sale or a remodel.

Permit history (25)

How to read the status column: Final / Complete / C of O — city records show the permit was finalized. Issued — the work was permitted, but final completion is not confirmed. Applied / In review / Approved / Fees paid — proposed, not completion. Expired — the permit expired without a confirmed final status. Void / Withdrawn / Canceled — not evidence the work was installed. Any other status is shown exactly as the issuing office records it, without a completion reading.

Record numbers link to the City of Tucson’s official file. Highlighted rows are the ones that imply electrical work or an unpermitted-work finding.

This is an inference from public records — the year a structure was built, how it is classified, and what has been permitted. It is not an inspection, and nothing here confirms what is actually installed at this address. The only way to know is to look in the panel. See an error in this public-record report?
