    What Is the Virginia Journeyman Electrician License?

    The Virginia Journeyman Electrician license is issued by the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR) through the Board for Contractors. It authorizes you to perform electrical work under the supervision of a licensed Master Electrician and is a required credential for electricians who want to work legally on electrical systems in Virginia.

    The Journeyman license is a critical step in the Virginia electrical licensing pathway. It demonstrates the hands-on competency and code knowledge required for independent electrical work on the job site, and is the foundation for eventually qualifying for the Virginia Master Electrician license — which allows you to supervise journeymen and run your own electrical contracting business.

    Virginia Journeyman Electrician License Requirements

    1. Experience

    Applicants must have verifiable experience in electrical work under the supervision of a licensed Master Electrician. Contact the Virginia DPOR to confirm current experience hour requirements before applying.

    2. Required Exam

    Applicants must pass the Virginia Journeyman Electrician Trade Exam — an open-book exam based on the National Electrical Code (NEC) covering wiring methods, installation requirements, load calculations, and Virginia electrical statutes.

    3. Application & Fees

    Submit your application through the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR). Application and exam fees apply and are subject to change — visit dpor.virginia.gov for current requirements and fee schedules.

    4. Background Check

    All applicants must complete a background check as part of the licensing process.

    5. Identification

    A valid government-issued photo ID is required for all applicants.
