Why do we need middleman? If electrician can work then he does not need all bunch of bs.
Wrong
Where I live in Canada, they already consider someone who is a master, a licensed electrician, and the only ones who can perform electrical work with their own permit. I disagree with this guy when he said masters understand just the business side. They have to pass a very long exam to show they're knowledgeable with electrical code and installs.
A master electrician is tested on NEC knowledge and calculations. Making him/her directly responsible for the work of the electricians. Not running a business. The electrical contractors license is the business side.
All states are different. In michigan, you are an apprentice for 4 years 8000 hours, then you can take your journeyman test. As a journeyman , you can do any electrical work by yourself but you have to work under a master. After 2 years of holding your journeyman, you can take your masters test, IT IS NOT business, it is more advanced code and calculations. If you pass your masters, then you can take your electrical contractors test, which is all state laws, no code. If you pass that test, you can now pull permits.
I don’t agree with half of this, in most states you can’t even get the ecl unless you have a masters or a master on payroll therefore most masters are also the contractor most of the time. The master not only understands the business side but also the electrical side it’s all shit without the master snd yes he’s more important than the jman apprentice and electrical contractor, who gets there masters and not there contractors license? Bro get out of here
So if so.e o e get a contracting LL can't do a remodel I'm a jw electrician n I Wana start my own thing I'm 30 years old I'm good at what I do but I'm ignorant at how to go on doing it business wise
Master electrician will typically have a better understanding of the NEC.
Mike Holmes I still have challenges for you to try ! You did tell me over 2 years ago in 1 reply and I quote you " I love a challenge bring it on " so when you going to put your money were your big mouth is ?? and talk to me directly so you can try my challenges live on camera or admit you too chicken to take on a viewers challenge ??
Hey Mike Holmes you in one show I saw that you didn't seem to know there are at least for ways to feed power to a 240 volt AC cercuit ! Apparently you did not learn all the basics of household electrical work ! Maybe you should go see Frank see he can maybe teach you ( an old dog ) new tricks or at least the basics of electrical wiring for houses ! Hey Frank here is one for you I came across ( tell me what you think ) A home has 2 bathrooms and a outside outlet all on one ground fault in the one bathroom ! The 2 bathrooms are on opposite sides of the home ! I know what I would do about it ! would you change that set up ??
A master electrician knows the business side 🌺
