Licensed Electrician Required on Electrical Work
This article is to reinforce the importance of consistent practices when validating the presence of a licensed electrician on projects during the performance of electrical work.
State law requires the presence of a licensed electrician on the job site when work is being performed on state projects involving electrical wiring.
Project offices shall require the contractor to furnish the electrician’s name and a copy of his/her license at the pre-construction meeting. We encourage staff to request certification from the contractor, at the pre-construction meeting, that a licensed electrician will be on site when performing electrical work.
