Two classes of license shall be issued by the Board of Electrical Examiners: Class I - Master Electrician and Class II- Journeyman Electrician.
(A) A Class I Master Electrician License shall entitle the license holder to install, repair, alter, add to or change any electrical wires, fixtures, appliances, apparatus, raceways, conduit, or any part thereof which generates, transmits, transforms, or utilizes electrical energy in any form for light, heat, power, or communications. A master electrician may secure permits for the installation or alteration of any electrical wiring, devices or equipment. The holder of such a license may either do the work or employ a Class II Journeyman. If a Class I Master employs a non-license holder for the purpose of installing or altering electrical devices or equipment, the non-license holder shall require the direct on-the-job supervision of a Class I Master or a Class II Journeyman at all times when the non-licensed holder is at work. Any individual who makes application for a Class I license must have worked for a period of at least two years as a licensed Class II Journeyman and have worked a minimum of 4,000 hours.
(B) A Class II Journeyman Electrician shall entitle the license holder to undertake the work of installing, or altering electrical wiring, devices, and equipment in the employ of a Class I Master Electrician. Any individual who makes application for a Journeyman’s license must show written proof of having worked full-time as an apprentice electrician or in an equivalent position, for a period of two years or 4000 hours.
