8-19.

In addition to the payment of the license fee each person, firm
or corporation shall file with the Board of Electrical Examiners
and Supervisors a penal bond to the State of Maryland in the sum
of One Thousand ($1, 000. 00) Dollars, conditioned upon the faithful
performance of any and all work entered upon or contracted by the
licensee and to save harmless the owner or real party in interest in
the property or structure within or for which the licensee shall
provide work or materials from loss, damage and/or injury which
shall arise through want of skill or through failure to use proper
material in the performance of the work by the licensee. No license
or renewal thereof shall be issued until such bond is filed. If, for
any reason, such bond becomes ineffective, then, in such event, the
license shall be void and of no effect.

8-20.

Any person, firm or corporation who shall, as of the effective date

Any person, firm or corporation which has, for a period of at least
two years prior to the effective date of this chapter, pursued the
trade of a Restricted Electrician and is deemed competent by the

Restricted Electrician license without written examination, pro-
vided that application for such license is made within 90 days fol-
lowing the effective date of this chapter.

8-21.

No license or renewal thereof granted under this chapter may be
transferred. Whenever the representative of a firm or corporation,
that is, the person who had qualified as a Master or Restricted
Electrician and whose name appeared on the face of the firm's or

his employment or association with such firm or corporation, then
the firm or corporation shall so notify the Board and immediately
surrender such license.
