Oops, my fingers dropped a packet.. that was supposed to say "ones in

*Is* there such a formal process *required* to
become a
"licensed Electrician"? Or, is it simply "take a test,
pay the fee" (in the US).
'round here, I'm pretty sure it's the later. Personally, I've never
gone through an appprenticeship (but have had some direction, and
have experience), and am a lot better electrician than most of the
ones in the are... It pisses me off immensely when I find somewhere that the electrician reversed hot and neutral... the
most annoying so
far was a lightswitch, where the idiot that built the place switched
neutral instead of hot. That made the simple act of changing a
broken lightbulb a dangerous proposition...
