Being a competent electrician is just the start if you aspire to become an electrical contractor. Besides having plenty of experience as a journeyman, youll need to look at the larger picture of what needs to be done and how to do it. Thats because electrical contractors take responsibility for designing, installing, and maintaining electrical systems. They evaluate the specifics of every project taken on and use this information to create an action plan, assign manpower, and evaluate results for quality and safety.
While some are employed by companies specializing in electrical work, many electrical contractors operate their own business. Electrical contractors may maintain an office as a base, but much of their time is spent on worksites. Depending on the type of job being performed, these locations can be indoors or outside. Emergency situations and looming deadlines can extend an electrical contractors workweek beyond normal hours. Safety needs to be a primary concern for electrical contractors and those they employ because injury rates for electrical workers are higher than the national average.
