I couldn't agree more with NJwirenut. He is right on the mark. Sounds like you are taking all the right kinds of classes. Having all that knowledge under your belt is of great benifit. As NJ said though, as soon as you can, try to start getting some field experience.

This is a very rewarding field. I love what I do and get a great deal of satisfaction. After 25 years I can still stand back and admire my work and what it means for the customer. If I can give you only one piece of advice it would be this. Construction in general is a dangerous occupation and the electric industry even more so. Always practice safe methods. I always teach my apprentices that you always work with electric like it's live.

Your in the right place on these boards. I think this is the best and brightest group of people on the internet in this field.


Wiring is no hobby
