Electricians assemble, install, and maintain electronic wiring in homes or businesses.
They use a variety of tools and equipment to do their job effectively. They prepare blueprints and follow instructions to complete installations correctly, and they must pay careful attention to detail. They must have strong literacy skills to obtain information from relevant resources, and they must be able to communicate with supervisors and co-workers—either in person or in written form.
