When I got a building and electrical permit from the city all I submitted for plans was where the walls were going, size and opening function of the windows, and where the smoke/CO detector was going. Be sure to have all the dimensions on the drawings, including door sizes, also where the hot water tank and furnace are located. I'm sure I am missing a few things, but there are detailed instructions for what to have on the plans on the city website. The one thing we did not have was any electrical plans (submitted anyway).
