Nature of Trade
Construction Electricians layout, assemble, install and test electrical fixtures, apparatus, and wiring used in electrical systems on construction projects. These systems are used to provide power for heat, light and air conditioning and refrigeration. Construction Electricians also install and connect electrical machinery, electronic equipment controls, signals and communications systems.

Construction Electricians follow blue prints and specifications for most installations. For safety, Electricians follow National Electrical Code Specifications and procedures and, in addition, must comply with requirements of state, county and municipal electrical codes.
Technicians and installers install voice data, fiber optics, alarm systems, microwave, as well as low voltage alarm and sound systems.

Formal Training
To become a Journeyman Electrician, a person receives diversified training in all areas of the electrical fields. Apprentices train in a 5-year program which includes 1,000 hours of classroom instruction on the most up to date technology in the electrical field. Technicians and installers receive classroom training in all fields of low voltage installation.
