Electricians license in Illinois?
Do you need a license in Illinois to be an electrician? I know the city of Chicago has special rules. But I am interested in the rest of Illinois. Someone said you didn't need anything to call yourself an electrician and this just doesn't sound right to me

I'm pretty sure you would need a license to work on someone's house. That's why there is a National Electric Code.

If you plan on working on anyone but your owns house, yes, you need a license. If you are planning on the work being your own business, you will also need insurance and bonding.

One problem in IL is that that could be a "union" state. I had a buddy that paid the union $1000.00 and that they gave him a card and placed him to paintings in Chicago interior of three weeks. He found out on the activity and is making some tall money six years later. good success.
