This bill updates the structure and authority of the Alabama Board of Electrical Contractors, which oversees licensing for electrical contractors and journeyman electricians in the state. It extends the terms of board officers from one year to three years and authorizes the board to hire compliance officers to investigate consumer complaints about licensed contractors. The legislation also requires contractors to display their certification numbers and company names on all business documentation, advertising, and service vehicles, while giving the board power to establish minimum repair and service standards with a 30-day notice period before implementation. Additionally, the bill mandates that licensees follow local electrical code standards where applicable and includes technical updates to align existing code language with current formatting standards.
