§ 150.140 ELECTRICAL WORK ON ONE'S OWN PROPERTY.
   (A)   A person who both owns and possesses an improved or unimproved parcel of land may personally accomplish electrical work for which a license is required by this division, without having such a license relative to a one- or two-family residential structure on such parcel, if:

      (2)   In the instance of electrical work for which a permit is required which poses a substantial potential health or safety hazard (as determined by the Building Commissioner by making reference to standards issued by the city) the nonlicensed person has secured, after furnishing full plans and information, the Building Commissioner's written approval of the specified work; or
      (3)   In the instance of electrical work for which a permit is required which if done improperly is not a potential health or safety hazard (as determined by the Building Commissioner by making reference to standards issued by the city) the nonlicensed person has secured, after furnishing full plans and information, approval in writing of the specified work from the Building Commissioner or a representative which the Mayor designates.
   (B)   The determination by the Building Commissioner as to whether the nonlicensed person shall be allowed to accomplish the electrical work shall be made on the basis of whether the nonlicensed person possesses sufficient knowledge and technical skill to accomplish the work in accordance with building standards and procedures.
