Hi Everyone,

My wife and I are looking at moving to the UK for a couple of years. I am seeking information regarding trade recognition and gaining an electrical license.

I work for the electrical supply authority mainly doing hv industrial work, my license is unrestricted as a electrical fitter mechanic in Queensland, Australia.

I would probably looking at doing similar work in the UK, I could do domestic depending on licensing.

From what I can see there seems to be different classes of licenses in the UK such as domestic and industrial etc.

Which organization issues the Electrical license in the UK?

Thanks for the help, Dave
