Licences/Permits Commercial - 09/23/07 06:29 PM
I currently live in Kansas City, MO and own a company on the side of my main job. I work as a cable technician at a very large corperation along with 3 of my employees (that work with my side company).
We have over 20 years cabling experience between us including but not limited to wallfishing cable, telephone, data cable, video, etc.
We are wanting to move my side company into the field of prewiring cable, phone, data, video, and sorround sound cabling in houses that are being built around our area.
My question is this, iv been looking into the permits/licences needed to do this and have found some information (planning on calling the county tomorrow). What i want to know is, do we need a electricians licence to do this? I know its LV, which is why i ask... does it vary county to county? None of us are certified electricians, I am a trained but not certified fire inspector, and am very familiar with building construction and building codes.
Yet, i dont have the time to apprentice 4000 hours, goto school for 500 something.
Do I HAVE to have that certification??
