ELECTRICIAN NEAR ME- What is an Electrician
                     ELECTRICIAN NEAR ME- 
What is an Electrician?
An electrician is a tradesman specializing in electrical wiring of buildings, 
transmission lines, stationary machines, and related equipment. Electricians may be 
employed in the installation of new electrical components or the maintenance and 
repair of existing electrical infrastructure. Electricians may also specialize in wiring 
ships, airplanes, and other mobile platforms, as well as data and cable lines.
When we refer to, “electricians,” we’re talking about tradespeople that install and 
repair wiring found in buildings and the various electrical systems found within them, 
including HVAC, security, lighting and computer network systems.
Today’s electricians can be divided into four main 
categories:
Residential Electricians – These electricians work in 
home dwellings that can range from single-family houses 
to large apartment complexes.
Commercial Electricians – Work sites can include office 
buildings, retail outlets, schools, hospitals, and industrial 
facilities that do not involve high-voltage. These 
electricians install and repair electrical systems found in 
existing commercial buildings, new construction, and 
renovation projects.
Industrial Electricians – These electricians perform 
maintenance and installation of electrical components and 
machinery found in industrial settings. This may include 
working with high-voltage electricity at industrial 
manufacturing locations.
Low Voltage Electricians – As their name implies, these 
electricians are involved with low-voltage systems that 
primarily include voice, data, and video (VDV) networks 
and systems. Inside the industry you may hear these 
professionals referred to as VDV electricians or Voice-Data-
Video electricians. Their work typically focuses on phone 
lines and fiber optic cable repair and installation in any 
setting where these materials are used.
You will find that some states combine some of these 
classifications. For example, some states may combine 
residential and low voltage into one category. Others may 
combine commercial and industrial electricians into one 
category.
In addition to classifying electricians by role, they can be further subdivided into three 
additional categories based on experience and training:
Apprentice – These electricians-in-training work under the supervision of an experienced 
professional for a number of years before they reach the journeyman level
Journeyman – This status is awarded once an electrician completes their apprenticeship 
and is judged by a state-approved authority as being competent in their trade
Master – Master electricians are defined as those with years of experience as journeymen 
who have demonstrated high-level competence through a state-approved exam
As you might have guessed, each state’s electrician licensing regulatory agency defines the 
parameters and scope of duties for each of these levels.
A Historical Perspective on Electricians
Even though man didn’t master electricity until the 1880s – the time that saw the first 
central power stations – we’ve certainly understood its brute force since prehistoric times. 
In fact, many of the most important gods of mythology were those with the power to 
wield electricity in the form of lightning.
While there may have been some close calls along the road to discovering how to make 
electricity work for humankind, it wasn’t until around 1600 that significant steps towards 
understanding electromagnetism were made. It was then that the English astronomer 
William Gilbert made the first recorded in-depth study of static electricity. At that time he 
found the best way of creating static electricity was by rubbing a cloth against amber, 
introducing the word “electro” to the English language, which is Greek for amber.
Finally, during a thunderstorm in 1752, Benjamin Franklin did his key-on-the-kite 
experiment that we all learned about in grade school, and with several other important 
figures of the day, major inroads were made towards mastering electricity. By 1875, the 
first electricians installed the first municipal street lighting system in Los Angeles, followed 
by Paris three years later. Even then those electricians still had somewhat of a divine 
nature.
Also of interest to note, up until about 1884 there was vigorous competition between the 
widespread adoption of alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC). Had it not been 
for the invention of the first transformer that year perhaps all of our houses today would 
be powered by direct current?
Fast-forward to the present and you find that most people take electricity for granted. 
However that doesn’t diminish the importance of electrician’s one iota.
