S 2148 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Exempts licensed master plumbers from certain electrical contractor business permit requirements.

This bill exempts licensed master plumbers in New Jersey from needing an electrical contractor business permit when performing specific routine maintenance tasks. It directly affects licensed master plumbers who replace standard electric water heaters (up to 240 volts) or air conditioning condensing units (up to 240 volts) in residential settings. The key provision adds these common plumbing-related tasks to an existing list of exempt activities under electrical licensing law, removing the requirement for a separate electrical permit. The exemption applies only to work within these defined parameters and does not affect other electrical work requiring permits.
