FAR 43 is the regulations, but what you want is Advisory Circular 43.13:
43.13-1B - Acceptable Methods, Techniques, and Practices - Aircraft Inspection and Repair
Thank you
Technically, it's not required on E-AB flying machines, but you're correct that the inspector has every right to refuse to sign if he doesn't like what he sees.
"Best Practices" is the term you're looking for, and they are all over the place when it comes to building an aircraft.

Current spec is NASM33540, and it incorporates Safe-T Cable as an approved system now. IO couldn't find a free copy of it online, but all the data but the Safe-T cable stuff is in MS33540 Rev J, which is online and available from various sources for free. MS33540 was superseded 1998 by the NASM spec. My go to site for specs is everyspec.com.
