Who can do commercial electrical permit work
Any electrical work in commercial buildings needs a permit. Only a licensed contractor can buy a commercial electrical permit.
Contractors must have a license to work in Oregon. The Oregon Construction Contractors Board ↗ (CCB) issues licenses to contractors. The permit application and their company materials must list the license number. To do most electrical work, contractors must also have their BCD electrical license and a BCD supervising electrical license ↗.
