SF 4488 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Electrical work supervision modification

This bill modifies Minnesota's electrical work supervision requirements to clarify who can supervise electrical work and under what conditions. It directly affects licensed electricians, contractors, and unlicensed workers by updating rules for journeyworker electricians, power limited technicians, and unlicensed individuals performing electrical tasks. The key changes allow employers to supervise electrical work through joint employment arrangements rather than requiring direct employment, while maintaining limits on how many unlicensed workers a licensed individual can supervise. The bill also clarifies experience requirements for licensing and establishes record-keeping obligations for contractors employing unlicensed workers. These provisions aim to provide clearer guidance on supervision responsibilities without changing the fundamental licensing requirements for electrical work in Minnesota.
