I RECENTLY SAW YOUR GROUP PAGE AND FOUND YOU DISCUSSING REQUIREMENTS IN
THE ELECTRICAL FIELD.
I AM SOON TO RELOCATE FROM THE UK TO FLORIDA AND WISH TO GAIN
EMPLOYMENT AS AN ELECTRICIAN.
I AM FULLY QUALIFIED IN THE UK BUT DO NOT KNOW IF THIS IS WORTH
ANYTHING IN USA ?
CAN ANY ONE OFFER ANY ADVICE ON THIS SUBJECT ?
MANY THANKS FOR YOUR TIME....

Most electrical work in the state of Florida requires that the electrician
has a valid state issued license. For more information see:

I don't know about Florida, but in NY employees can be covered by the
employer's license. (Right Jack?)

Unfortunately you will find that UK and US electrical has very little in
common; so I don't know if an employer will even consider your experience to
be worth much.

That gets really "iffy". It depends on the job location, who's doing the work,
what's being done and who the work is done for. For examples electrical work
performed for major telephone companies nation wide do not require a licensed
electrician because of the strict requirements imposed by the telcos. On the
other hand, in the city of Niagara Falls, NY, if you want to touch an electrical
wire you had not only be licensed but belong to the union as well or there's a
good chance the job will be shut down.

First off - don't use capitals.

Second, have a rethink about your proposed move.
