In Florida, electricians must hold a license from the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) Electrical Contractors' Licensing Board. The main license types are Electrical Contractor (EC) for work in the full electrical trade, and Registered Electrical Contractor (ER) for those registered in specific cities or counties. Before hiring, verify that your electrician's license is current and in good standing.

You can search for a licensed electrician on the DBPR's online licensing portal at myfloridalicense.com by entering the contractor's name, license number, or city. This confirms their credentials and allows you to check for any disciplinary history.

Most electrical work in Florida requires a permit and inspection under the Florida Building Code. Ask your electrician whether permits are needed for your project and whether they will obtain them. A licensed electrical contractor is trained to know the scope of work they can legally perform and the code standards that apply.
