Installation Electrician (Wireman's Licence)

This is hands-on electrical work in Isando: new installs, repairs and CoCs that pass the first time. It's the kind of job where doing the basics well every day gets you noticed.

This post is Isando-based, with most of your time spent at an office park maintenance team.

• Fault-find tripping circuits with a multimeter, insulation tester and loop tester

• N3 electrical trade theory on top of your trade test
