California requires electricians to hold a state license from the Contractors State License Board (CSLB). The license type for electrical work is the C-10 Electrical Contractor classification. Before hiring any electrician, verify their license status through the CSLB online license-check tool at cslb.ca.gov using either their license number or business name.

Most electrical work in Los Angeles requires a building permit. Because permit requirements vary by project type and location, contact your local building department—the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety—to determine what permits apply to your job. The contractor should be familiar with permit requirements for electrical work in your area.

When you hire an electrician, ask to see their current license and check its status yourself. Request a written contract that clearly describes the work, materials, timeline, and total cost. Confirm that the contractor will obtain any required permits before starting work.
