Trying to figure out how to become an electrician in the UK?

My career started with a 4-year apprenticeship where I earned my BTEC and NVQ qualifications. Since then, my hands-on experience has covered the full spectrum of the trade—from complex industrial maintenance and commercial fixed-wire testing right through to domestic full re-wires and extensions.

I created this site to be the resource I wish I'd had—no fluff, no confusing jargon. Just clear, no-nonsense guides to help you get qualified and build a successful career in the trade.
