What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill modifies a rule of the Department of Safety and Professional Services

to create an exception to the continuing education requirement for a youth

apprentice who is enrolled as a registered electrician.

Under current law, no person may install, repair, or maintain electrical wiring

unless the person is licensed as an electrician or enrolled as a registered electrician

by DSPS. Under current rules of DSPS, a person who is enrolled as a registered

electrician may renew his or her enrollment if the person obtains at least 24 hours

of continuing education prior to the expiration of the one-year term of the

enrollment.

Under the bill, a person who is enrolled in a youth apprenticeship program

approved by the Department of Workforce Development may renew his or her

enrollment as a registered electrician without completing the continuing education

that applies to other registered electricians.
