Where the Electrical Inspector refuses to issue
a certificate of inspection in the electrical work of any building
or condemns the same, the owner may within five days after receiving
the written notice from the Electrical Inspector file notice in writing
with the Electrical Inspector and select a licensed electrician who
with the Electrical Inspector shall select a third party who shall
be a journeyman electrician and the three shall constitute a board
of arbitration to determine whether such electrical work is defective
and unsafe and their decision shall be final and conclusive. Such
board shall furnish the Electrical Inspector and the owner with a
copy in detail of their findings.
