Is there a MOD that exists that features electrical cords, outlets, circuit breakers, pipes for plumbing, etc to duplicate the items an electrician or plumber would use to add to my son's house?
I should mention my son is 6 but is pretty technologically inclined, outside out reading of course so if there was a mod that had basic functioning with decorative intent that can be used in CREATIVE mode, that would be what I'm looking for.
Minecraft isn't really specific enough for that kind of precision work, there's a lot of stuff that goes on inside walls in modern houses. If he really wants to get realistic, I'd recommend actual Architecture-like tools like Revit and the like. I remember enjoying fiddling with floorplans and things like that when I was younger.
As for in modded minecraft itself, I don't think there are many mods out there that add that sort of thing specifically for creative mode, as there isn't much demand for it. For pure decoration purposes, Decocraft or other mods in the decoration category of Curse might have things like that.
For function purposes, I'd recommend turning on Survival mode and loading up Immersive Engineering or some other technology mod (also a curse category). You can turn off the monsters with peaceful mode, and it gives you an opportunity to work (simulated work, of course) for what you build, giving you a sort of a feel for what we have in our somewhat-convenient society today.
Of course, mod crafting requirements aren't for the faint of heart, so he could just use the blocks added for creative decoration purposes as well.

It is possible. There are mods that allow this, Mainly Ender IO with it's small pipes and power conduits. You can put them inside walls with the conduit covers (or whatever they're called). It would be a matter of making a mod that works like this but with more realistic textures and items.

I support heavy equipment 100 percent. When life gives you lemons, make floor cleaner and use artificial flavours to make lemonade.

Those are my suggestions

With great power comes great electricity bill.
