Right now, a Master Electrical and a Contractors license. As well as licenses in every little city, burg, hamlet, village and town. But Iowa is changing to state-wide licensing right now.

Journeyman licenses are not required in the state of Nevada. The city of Reno does require them, and I had one for many years. They recently changed from a simple city license to some sort of national license agency (with a myriad of requirements), but I haven't jumped through all their idiotic hoops yet. Someday, maybe.

Most of my work in the city is either power plants, or public works, both of which are exempt from license requirements.

Sure does, what a joke. The state license should carry me through the state, and that is the intent of it, but each city wants to put there hand in my pocket too, usually to the tune of about $65 each per year. Thats about the average around here. Unbelievable really.

Master Electrician and Electrical Contractor. Colorado licensing is statewide. Most jurisdictions require you to register with them (free) so they can track whether insurance is up to date.

Colorado issues house wireman, journeyman, and master licenses.


Oh, yeah--Colorado has reciprocal licensing agreements with 13 other states ----BUT Florida isn't on the list

Thank goodness the states around here made local jurisdictions licenses disappear, VA, MD, DC, WVA. I use to carry 12 maybe more. Still have the local business licenses to contend with.

Florida reciprocates with 49 states? Seriously, do they? Never heard of this before.
