TrustedPros Ask The Pros Contractor Talk Low Voltage Electrical License

Low Voltage Electrical License

Hi,

I understand that there is no specific General Contractors License in Ontario (Ottawa region), but that should electrical work be being done, a licensed electrician would be required.

I am wondering if this is still the case for low voltage electrical (AV work for example), wiring network cables or things like that, or if there is even a difference to the license board when it comes to stuff like that.

Thanks for any help.

Hi Matt

There is no specific licence for that type of work. However we have come across a number of large clients that want the installations inspected by ESA. To get the application for inspection and permits you need to be an authorized electrical contractor with a Master Electrician.

Cheers
