DECISION ORDER

ORDERED that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The defendant Marel Electrical Services, Inc. (hereinafter Marel), made a prima facie showing that it was not at fault in the happening of the plaintiff's accident.

Co., 239 N.Y. 43, 46 ; accord, Morriseau v. Rifenburg Constr., 223 A.D.2d 981, 982 ), or that Marel assumed a continuing duty to inspect the site after completing installation of the electrical conduit (see, Long v. Danforth Co., 236 A.D.2d 781 ).
