What is the average salary of Electricians?

Answer 1

In the state of Pa, in the north eastern part of the state, working for an electrical contractor you can start if you have gone to school for around $12.00 dollars an hour if you have HAVAC training that would be a plus for you getting hired, that's with a private contractor who is not union. If you get hired into a electrical department in industry in the northeast your looking more at $ 18.00 dollars to start an hour but you better be able to perform, and getting hired is not as easy as it use too be. In industry if you have PLC skills that would be in your favor of getting hired as well as 3 phase skills. I the southern states starting off you won't get rich. Think of it as paying your dues, the journeymen you will be working for did the same thing you are doing for about the same money. Working in a local non union shop doing Residential/ Commercial work you can figure on about $6.00 hr to 10.00 hr. to start. If you start in The Industrial field the work is a little harder so you can figure on a little more. If you can find a school in your area, it is best to go and learn the basics (Ohms Law, voltage drop, and how to read and understand the National Electrical Code book) Here's some advice, #1 "Ask lots of questions". Journeymen focus on getting the job done, they won't explain how to do every step so it's your job to ask and learn. #2 "Learn what parts are required for the task you are working on". This will help you understand the building process #3 "Do what you are told". Some things might not seem important or work related but there is a reason for them telling you this. (For your safety or to prevent damage of tools or equipment) If you do these things you will learn more, and with more knowledge your pay will go up. Journeymen in the southern states receive anywhere from $13.00 hr to $20.00 hr for Residential/ Commercial work and $18.00 hr to $27.00 hr for industrial work plus per-diem. you will only get out of it, what you put into it...
