Master Electrician Jobs Overview
You probably know what an electrician does, especially if you’ve had your home wiring installed or repaired. But what does it mean to be a master electrician? In a word—experience. There’s quite a difference in the responsibilities and benefits between journeyman electricians and those with master electrician jobs. When you become a master electrician, you can start your own business as an electrical contractor, supervise other electricians, get work permits for projects, and do advanced work such as laying out wiring systems and installations according to electrical codes.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) estimates that electrician jobs overall will see an 8% growth over the next 10 years. This increase may be due in part to the expansion of alternative energy sources, which will need electricians for installation.

Master Electrician Training and Skills
Electricians start their careers either by taking classes at a trade school or by doing on-the-job training serving as an apprentice under the supervision of an experienced electrician. After three to six years as an apprentice, an electrician is known as a journeyman. After another 12,000 hours (6 years) of work, the journeyman can qualify for a master electrician license. At that level, a master electrician has learned:
- How to supervise journeyman and apprentice electricians.
- The specifics of building codes.
- Project management.
- Safety procedures and regulations.
- Advanced electrical work like routing circuits and locating breaker panels.
Master electricians choose to become certified to show a higher level of education and mastery. Several organizations certify electricians in different areas of work.
Electricians need a mix of important qualities, including color vision, critical-thinking and customer-service skills, physical strength and stamina, and troubleshooting skills.
