Many people make the mistake of not checking for the right certification when hiring an electrician. It's easy to trust someone who has years of experience and is "qualified" but that person may not know the code requirements or size of the problem.

Licensed electricians are also backed by the state's Electrical Division, which takes action if something goes wrong.
