WILLIAM DONALD SCHAEFER, Governor Ch. 648

"LOCAL LICENSE" MEANS, UNLESS THE CONTEXT REQUIRES
OTHERWISE, A LICENSE THAT IS ISSUED BY A LOCAL BOARD TO PROVIDE
ELECTRICAL SERVICES AS A MASTER ELECTRICIAN.

COMMITTEE COMMENT: This subsection is new language added to
avoid repetition of language such as "local license to
provide electrical services as a master electrician".

Defined terms: "License" § 2-101

"Local board" § 2-101 "Master electrician" § 2-101

"Provide electrical services" § 2-101

(H) MASTER ELECTRICIAN.

"MASTER ELECTRICIAN" MEANS AN INDIVIDUAL WHO HAS THE
EXPERIENCE, KNOWLEDGE, AND SKILL TO PROVIDE ELECTRICAL SERVICES
IN ALL ASPECTS OF THE ELECTRICAL TRADE, IN A MANNER THAT COMPLIES
WITH APPLICABLE PLANS, SPECIFICATIONS, CODES, OR LAW.

COMMITTEE COMMENT: This subsection is new language derived
from former Art. 56, § 531(c).

The defined term "provide electrical services" is
substituted for the former list of specific activities
of a master electrician.

The phrase "in all aspects of the electrical trade" is

substituted for the former reference to "services

{that} are unlimited in the electrical trade", for
clarity.

The former word "regulations" is deleted in light of
the broader word "law".

Defined term: "Provide electrical services" § 2-101

(I) PROVIDE ELECTRICAL SERVICES.

(1)  "PROVIDE ELECTRICAL SERVICES" MEANS TO PROVIDE
ANY SERVICE IN THE ELECTRICAL TRADE.

(2)  "PROVIDE ELECTRICAL SERVICES" INCLUDES
INSTALLING, REPAIRING, OR ALTERING ANY ELECTRICAL WIRING,
FIXTURE, APPLIANCE, APPARATUS, RACEWAY, OR CONDUIT THAT:

(I)  GENERATES, TRANSMITS, TRANSFORMS, OR USES
ELECTRICAL ENERGY IN ANY FORM FOR LIGHT, HEAT, POWER, OR
COMMUNICATION; AND

(II)  IS LOCATED WITHIN A PLANT, SUBSTATION, OR
ELSEWHERE.
