  
9. 2006/2007 Practising Licence Renewal
All 2005/06 Practising Licences for electrical workers have now expired.
At the date of print, 74% of Registered Electrical Workers have renewed their practising licences.
If you do not have a current 2007 practising licence and you are
carrying out prescribed electrical work for reward then you are
working in breach of Section 95 of the Electricity Act 1992.
The Board is now taking a stronger stance towards
registered electrical workers who practice without a current
practising licence.
An average fi ne of $750.00 plus average costs of $1,500.00,
together with publication of the workers name are the
likely minimum penalties that the Board will impose,
therefore it is vital that you apply for a current practising
licence as soon as possible.
The fastest way to process your renewal is through the use of the
online services at http://www.ewr.govt.nz
