Electrician Jobs and Advice at Electrician Information Resource

I work in the oil patch in Alberta, Canada, constructing well sites and performing plant maintenance. I wanted to share my passion for this fascinating career with a new generation of potential "sparks".

On my site, you'll find:

• Details of electrician school, certification and training
• Electrician safety tips, because your health is vital
• Details of jobs for electricians
• An overview of electrician tools you'll need in the field
• What kind of safety clothing is required to work in industry

And much more. In my time in the field, I've seen many unique situations and heard lots of stories, tips and warnings during my training. As this site grows, so will your knowledge and understanding of this exciting career choice.

My guarantee

All my advice comes guaranteed bullshit-free. I tell it how it is, so if you want to know exactly what it's like to be an industrial electrician, you've come to the right place.

I'll also include details of residential electrician work, so if the idea of big industry doesn't appeal, you can still take away important tips from the site.

Getting Started

I recommend you begin by reading the page Jobs for Electricians.

This will give you some idea of the kind of electrician jobs and career choices there are available, and what kind of commitment you'll be making when you start out.

There's no escaping the need to get practical experience, but many trainee electricians begin by enrolling in Electrician School to get a head-start on all the theoretical training they'll need to succeed.

Safety is of paramount importance to all electricians. You can find out more with our Electricity Safety Tips and learn about the Safety Clothing you'll be expected to wear on the job.

You're not a spark unless you're carrying an Electrical Tool Kit, so read more about Electrician Tools.

The life of an industrial "spark" is a hard one, but very rewarding. Welcome to your future.

Enjoy! If you have any specific requests, then please contact me.
