Florida electricians must be licensed by the state's Electrical Contractors' Licensing Board. Before hiring, verify that your contractor holds a current license. You can search for an active license by contractor name or license number on the Florida DBPR's online licensing portal at myfloridalicense.com. License types include General Electrical Contractor (EC) and Registered Electrical Contractor (ER), each with different scopes of work.

Most electrical work in Jacksonville requires a permit from the Building Inspection Division. The city enforces the Florida Building Code (currently the 8th Edition, 2023). Your contractor should handle permit applications, or you can submit permits online through JaxEPICS at JaxEPICS.coj.net. The Building Inspection Division is located at 214 North Hogan Street and can be reached at (904) 255-8500 or BIDDocuments@coj.net during business hours (Monday–Friday, 7 a.m.–4 p.m.).

When requesting a quote, ask whether the contractor will obtain the necessary permit and whether the price includes inspection fees. Confirm their license type matches your project scope—a Registered Electrical Contractor may be limited to certain municipalities, while a General Contractor can work more broadly.
