Electrical License

I'm reading the National Electric Code (2008) here. A few folks in town have asked me to do larger PV solar installations and I really can't do this without a electrical license (that belongs to me or a contractor). The test looks reasonable and I'm not too concerned with that. I've not been able to discern how long I need to apprentice or if it is necessary for me to become a journeyman before going for a master electrician EE-98. Comments welcome. It would be really nice if New Mexico would just adopt a PV solar installer class license and not require that a electrician license be present for every install. California and few other states have such a provision.

Well, you need some kind of contractor license down there. . Seems I heard you don’t need an electrical license just a contractor license. It may have changed. If you want good help check in to Mike Holt electrical. He is from WA like you, and me. I’m an electrician in WA, we have all kinds of classes. You don’t need a journeyman. You need an administrator and a business license. Pay tax and all well be good.
Hey Mikey,
I have contact info for Craig Wentz and Mark Morgan, both commercial/residential electricians in Silver City who do solar installations...they would know what is required. Let me know if you want their contact info.
