Talk Electrician Forum is one of three forums we have. We started in 2006 on ElectriciansForums.co.uk and soon after another forum popped up ripping off our
Okay, so we’ve had some confusing changes over the years. Usually just smilies on the forum changing. Or the automatic post merging system that wound up
Well, it started in 2006 as an advice website that like-minded electricians could login to, and chat about their day to day troubles as electricians. Sharing funny stories, tips and tricks of the trade, where electrical discounts were best found. That kind of thing.
Then from there we ended up with a few people who wanted to train as electricians and the Colleges near them didn’t provide the electrical courses. So we ended up sourcing a few good providers of training. One in the North, one in the Midlands and one in the South.
We actually launched our Tile Advice website first. With just the same kind of relaxed flow from small chatter between tilers, to a mammoth of a forum that provided advice all day and night to both professional and DIY tilers alike.
A plumbing forum was born early 2007. Same kind of relaxed atmosphere and training side to it. But a lot of gas related stuff going on with that forum – (more on that here – LINK REQUIRED)
Then as the forums grew we needed some more revenue to support the server and server management costs. And this then became quite an important side to the forum.
We get lots of members on the forums for free.
We then sell advertising space to companies who can provide products and / or services to the trade.
But also getting the two on first name terms where we can. And getting real regular long term customers, and friends.

Our Electricians Forum used to be for the UK-only, back in 2006. In 2019 it reached out to the rest of the world, and they responded.
Electricians Forums is a great place to find reputable training companies across the UK. We also run a free Electrician Mentor scheme whereby volunteers will help trainees with their exams by way of challenging them with the right questions to find the right answers. (No answers given without trainees working them out themselves!) – come join our community and let us help you find the right course for your needs.
Once you’ve been through all the necessary electricians training courses you tend to find that you have an electrical qualification but no electrical training or electrical skills. Electrician Jobs aren’t easy to come by quickly. But the forum is here to help. We have and area where jobs are posted to the forum by reputable companies, and also an area newbies can post to asking for electricians jobs.
Worldwide there are lots of rules, regulations and restrictions when it comes to electrical works being carried out on vehicles, properties (whether residential dwellings or commercial). However we do have some DIY members who share their knowledge with other DIYers. And then the professionals who can help, will help, to their limits. Nobody should touch electrics when they’re not competent. No exceptions. Read more by clicking the link below.
We have run a few Polls on this. Which is the actual best electricians van when you factor in the hand tools, products, ladders, perhaps supplies even. Then all the expensive power tools. Whether an electricians van should have a 110V hook-up somehow. Whether it needs reversing cameras or special security locks and alarm systems. So it’s not just all to do with the colour, make and model it seems. Join in and see what you think.
Then helped them pick out the best tools, then the best vans, then help them find customers. And which rate-a-builder websites to avoid registering to, and what website to get for their company.
Years on, those then become the guys sharing advice with newer forum members.
36,482 members are part of the forum that negotiates with suppliers to get cheaper deals on everything from electricians vans and van insurance, to electrical tools and products, and online marketing and web presence (inc facebook and twitter). The forum is free to use as an electrician, and electrical trainee on a course, or a retired electrician looking to pass on some skills to the newer generation.
Registration is free, and only takes a minute. There’s an option to subscribe to remove most of the advertisements. But it’s not compulsory.
Our forums are free to use for all electricians. But those who supply products and / or services to the electrical industry would need to contribute to the running costs of the forum to advertise those products and / or services to our members.
We have been running since 2006 and we are quite lucky in the sense that we have not lost many sponsors over the years. We tend to find once one becomes part of our community, they tend to want to stick around.
Drop us a line and we’ll be in touch.
ElectriciansForums.co.uk is a website that has sisters. It’s sister websites are UK Tiling Forum and Gas Engineers. Other than that you’re alright.
