What Does an Electrical Helper Do?

Electrical Helpers assist master electricians with installing and maintaining electrical systems. They perform tasks such as examining electrical units, measuring and cutting wires, and drilling holes for hookups. They also supply tools, maintain a clean workspace, and handle equipment storage. This role requires strength, flexibility, and manual dexterity for working in tight spaces and at heights. Good color vision is essential for differentiating wires. Career advancement includes becoming an electrician apprentice, journeyman electrician, or pursuing specialized positions like automotive or marine electrical helper.
