Q. If it decreases job for electricians, what jobs does it help to increase? I'm planning to go to college but I don't know what major is the best for me. Thank you. I'm trying to learn English. If I write something wrong, please correct me.

A. I don't believe it decreases jobs for electricians unless there is a difference between electricians and electronic engineers. Electronics is an ever expanding field whereas more things are controlled by electronics everyday than the way they used to be. People with electrical experience are still needed to set up wireless components.

Q. Found a site that said electricians with a license make about $20,000 more than techs with an associates in electronics engineering technology, is this true?

A. Electricians are in a "trade". Unions drive the pay of anyone in a trade higher than it normally would be. Electricians work on vital equipment that involves potentially deadly voltages. It is VERY important work and is vital to our modern society. Engineering techs usually work in a cushy lab in an office building. Electricians often do a lot of tough hard grunt work (running heavy cable, cutting conduit) in very tough locations and conditions. They are very different types of work. I personally think electricians deserve the money they get. I worked as an engineering tech for about 15 years and the pay was OK but nothing to write home about.

A. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation website is listed below: Excellent information regarding your test.

Q. Need some advice from electricians (UK) out there.. I got a foundation degree in electrical and mechanical engineering(Philippines), also got years of experience as maintenance technician from one company back home. But I found it hard to even land a job interview in this field. I was thinking of taking c&g2381, would this be of great help for my career?

A. You should have basic knowledge of electromechanical machine like motar ,altornator (which you might have got in engineering so keep in touch with all those book )other most important thing is you should have better knowledge of electric software (for example : CAD ) for better understanding.In this type of software you can create many constraints and you can analyze the behaviour of electromechanical machine by applying those constraints on same .
