Yes, that is an issue for those who want fire insurance.

Our electric co-op has the policy to inspect to the sub-panel all new construction before they connect the service drop. I was happy to have Rocky, our lineman, check out my work when I rewired the house from the very minimal stuff installed when the REA came through in the forties or fifties.

I don't do fire insurance for many of the same reasons I don't do disease insurance.
