Agree 100%. The electrical at a farm that boards our horse also scares the bejesus out of me. I've been doing electrical work there over the years and every chance I get, I demo the old stuff and put in new. all wiring in EMT conduit, no romex nailed to posts, etc. Mice love to chew on it and I've seen the charred wood as evidence. I don't use PVC because I've seen what horses do to that stuff. I've seen romex twisted together (at least they used wire nuts) in the open IN A HAY LOFT. No box, just waiting for someone to trip over it, pull the wire nuts off and have a live wire sitting there. One time, someone said there's smoke coming from behind a locker. Turns out some barn workers had just put up foam insulation and nailed through a run of romex into the metal siding. Basically the whole barn was HOT.
As for permits, ag buildings don't need permits here, but that doesn't mean stuff shouldn't be done right which means safe.
