... Be wary,GA76Apprentice,...that some state boards will disqualify you from ever getting your licence if you are caught by an AHJ,and reported to the Electrical Board..I too,did my fair share of side work and took alot of chances...Just be careful,..normally, activities that consitute "repairs" do not fill the criteria for obtaining a permit..In some states,a homeowner of a SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING ONLY may obtain permits for work done to his/her house..then pass that work onto you if he/she is unable to do so..the work will still be inspected,so mind your P's and Q's..and BY ALL MEANS,if you're not sure of something,ask a professional,or pass on the job,it's not worth endangering persons or property for some week-end pin money..
