Due to the lack of training offered, there isn't a whole lot of enforcement being done on areas covered by the license. Hopefully, IATSE will revive the program soon as I'd very much be interested in getting said license without having to work 8,000 hours out of state.http://licenseinfo.oregon.gov/index...amp;pfa=link_class&link_item_id=1663There is also the ETCP Electrician certification, which probably covers just as much (if not more) of the requirements offered by the state program. Of course, this is offered by a trade group and not any AHJ or licensing body.

8000 hours out of state? Look at http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/rules/OARS_900/OAR_918/918_282.html On Limited Journeyman Stage Electrician License. 918-282-0230 Oregon administrative rules.Keep in mind it is unlawful to perform electrical work in the state of Oregon with out a license. Reading your profile you listed yourself as a {Master electrician.} After checking building codes and not seeing any license through the state of Oregon made me ask the question about production electrician. Here in Oregon we take seriously working without a license, working for a licensed electrical contractor and who must also have a general supervising electrician. Also any necessary permits for doing the work.Use caution when you represent yourself as a electrician much less a Master Electrician when you have no license, are not legal nor have you gone through an apprenticeship program or have no proof of being trained by a licensed electrician here in Oregon.You may want to read http://www.cbs.state.or.us/external/bcd/enforcement.html and look up the penalties that others have received for not having the proper license or permits and doing electrical work. You may want to contact Chief electrical inspector for the state of Oregon and make sure what you can and cannot do legally if any. The penalties are steep.
