An Electrician is a person who installs, constructs, alters, repairs, maintains, commissions, tests, services, calibrates and operates related electrical and electronic systems in any premise, place, building or structure. They ensure that all electrical connections are safe and meet the Canadian Electrical Code. Electricity is used for a variety of purposes including climate control, security and communications, and therefore, electricians need to be proficient in many applications of electricity.
