Thank you everyone for help. I will let him to fix everything that is done wrong.

"What did he charge you?" Separate bathroom lite and exhaust fan in master bathroom, run new wire to switch. Replace existing exhaust fan with new.(I supplied fan. Was not happy what he proposed) Vent duct thru roof with new vent kit. $363.00 It was part of $2000 job-another bathroom and lights in two rooms. In last e-mail he stated everything withing code but would rewire to my satisfaction.

"Separate bathroom lite and exhaust fan in master bathroom, run new wire to switch". That is from proposal/contract which I paid. No money saved. I fill like... Do not know. I sent him another e-mail and asked what he thinks about it before I will take another steps.

He did not explain me anything. I would never agreed to do like this. I could do it myself, without hiring anybody. I discovered it last night, when decided to replace switch with timer. I thought LICENCED electrician can't work against of NEC.

I looked over my drawing. I was wrong, sorry. Hope my new sloppy drawing will help. Click to Enlarge 41.68 KB

Hi Jim, I have 2 cond. wire and two switches. Now hot wire (black) through switch goes to lamp, white wire is marked as hot now and through switch goes to fan. Ground wire connected to switches at grounding screws and I assume (I will check tonight) is used as neutral and as ground in light fixture and fan. This is quote from electrician's e-mail:"I did utilize neutral wire and used ground wire because I couldn't add more wires to that box"

Hi guys, I am not HI, but as new home owner got a lot of help by reading and asking question from this forum. Thank you all. Please help me with this. I hired licenced electrician to separate light fixture from fan. After job was done, I decided to replace switch with timer and discover: Neutral wire was utilized as hot and ground wire was used as neutral. I e-mail him with question if it is not against of NEC. No answer yet. Is it against of NEC or not? Thank you all in advance. Alex

I am new homeowner, and am not inspector. I will appreciate if you guys look at the pictures and tell me if this is a problem. We had inspection, and after that previous owner replaced water heater. I did not have inspection after that and just now saw how pressure relief valve is installed. Its so tight against of heating pipe that small handle on the top could not move a bit. Sorry to bother you, but I did not find any info how it has to be install properly. Thank you in advance. Click to Enlarge 24.55 KB Click to Enlarge 26.04 KB
