I’m finishing out my basement adding lights and fans to the ceiling. At the rough in inspection, the inspector said I needed neutrals in my switch legs. This confused me, since the wires I pulled will have neutrals for each switch in the box.

I drew up the schematic as the wires I pulled will be trimmed out. I ran it by a buddy who owns an electrician company, and he said it looks fine.

I’d welcome insights from folks here. Am I missing something?

The schematic does not show ground wires, and the 14/3 switch and wire can be ignored for this purpose since it was not at issue with the inspector.

Sorry about the orientation being 90 degrees off.

The article section you will need to read is 404.2(C), with that said, the forum rules do not allow us to answer "how to" or DIY questions so I must close this thread.
