An electrical contractor performs specialised construction work in the design, installation, and maintenance of electrical systems. Electrical contractors are usually grouped by major types of work performed, comprising: 1. "Outside" contractors are responsible for power transmission and distribution lines. Outside contractors construct and maintain the framework required to transport electricity produced at a power plant to power facilities, buildings, and homes. 2. "Inside" contractors provide electricity to any building within a property, including outside lighting or substations. 3. "Integrated building systems" (IBS) electrical contractors work mainly with low-voltage installations such as climate controls, networks, energy-efficient lighting. IBS contractors are skilled at integrating these system controls for maximum efficiency. Less
