Do instrument technicians need an electrician’s license? Is it still necessary? Is it mentioned in the documents that it’s mandatory? Please discuss

What does a meter reader need an electrician’s license for? Two different majors.

Instrument technicians and electricians are two different concepts; instrument technicians are involved in the installation and operation of instruments, while electricians work with electrical cables. Instrument technicians do not need an electrician’s license.

If a meter technician doesn’t do electrical work, they don’t need an electrician’s license.

Instrument technicians should fall under the category of electricians, as there is no entry for instrument technicians in the **List of Vocational Qualifications** published by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security in 2019.

In 2019, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security announced that there are many types of jobs that are not included in the **list of professional qualifications; for example, barbers. Should barbers also be classified as electricians?

It is necessary, but it is not a mandatory requirement; in fact, the power supply for instrument systems is 220V, and some special instruments also use 220V

All our instrument technicians hold electrician certificates, as there is a possibility of coming into contact with high-voltage electricity.

There are indeed many similarities and connections between instrumentation and electrical work. **There are no mandatory requirements; each company has its own specifications based on its own circumstances. After all, it’s not a bad idea for instrumentation technicians to obtain an electrician’s certificate, while electrical engineers should get a certified electrical engineer’s certificate, and instrumentation specialists should obtain a certified automation engineer’s certificate. It are two different professions, but many of the teaching materials are the same.**
