there are two main types of open cabling licence available – the ACMA Electrician licence and the Victorian Electrician Licence. The ACMA Electrician licence is required for anyone who wishes to install, maintain or repair low voltage wiring systems, while the Victorian Electrician Licence is required for those who wish to work on high voltage electrical systems. Both these licences have different requirements and fees associated with them and it is important for electricians to understand these before applying for either one.
