Important information for electrical contractors
Each electrical contractor licence must have at least one qualified technical person and one qualified business person. The qualified business/technical person must either be an employee of the electrical contractor, a member of the partnership, or an executive officer of the corporation. Only people in these positions can be nominated as a qualified business/technical person.
An electrical contractor licence will be cancelled if, for a period of one month, there is no qualified business and/or technical person attached to the licence.
Make sure your qualified technical person's electrical work licence is current. If your qualified technical person's licence expires (and you have no other nominated qualified technical person on your licence) you cannot perform electrical work.
If the qualified technical person or qualified business person has changed for your licence, you should advise the department by completing the application for additional/change of qualified person on a contractor licence (PDF, 145KB).
