Permits

Who permits electrical work in the Gainesville area?

Alachua County requires a report from a licensed electrician, who energizes and inspects the system, before power goes back on in an existing structure that has been without it for more than 90 days.

Levy County lists an electric upgrade as a permit type of its own, filed with an electric riser diagram and load calculations.

Those are the counties' own words. A city with a building department of its own, Gainesville among them, issues the permit inside its limits, so the street address decides where an electrical job's permit comes from; the Gainesville-area page lists every office.

The City of Gainesville's Building Division registers a company to pull permits inside the city limits only if it is a state-certified contractor.

Unincorporated Alachua County: Growth Management Building Division
Unincorporated Levy County: Development Department
City building departments: Every office in the area

Licensing

What license does an electrical contractor need in Gainesville?

Electrical work takes a certified or registered electrical contractor license from the Electrical Contractors' Licensing Board.

For a job in Alachua, Levy and Gilchrist counties, a registration has to cover the job's county or city, while a certified license covers all of Florida. 1Stop holds it on file before it sends any electrical work.
