The Danish dk.teknik.el takes it a step further: As soon as you ask anything related to wiring, you get the "call a pro"...

Borrowing the soap box for a moment:

There are e.g. gun licenses, which you need to buy guns and bullets. I see no problem in requiring a license of some sort to sell people the electrical gear, provided it is not out of reach to ordinary people.

OK, I'll admit: I want to get myself a license so I can do some limited work, but I don't intended to work as an appy for years to get one.
