Frequently asked questions

Is a licence needed for a Cable Technician job?

For many electrician roles in India a state wireman or supervisor licence is required; industrial and Gulf employers rely on your ITI certificate, trade test and safety training.

What is the difference between electrical and instrumentation?

Electrical covers power — wiring, motors, panels. Instrumentation covers measurement and control — transmitters, control valves, loops and PLC/DCS signals. Technicians who can do both (E&I) are especially sought after in plants.
