Job Description

This is hands-on electrical work in Kariega: new installs, repairs and CoCs that pass the first time. People who do well here are steady, honest and not scared to ask when something is unclear.

You'll report in Kariega. Relocation is not covered for this one.

What you'll actually do

  • Complete job cards, material lists and test reports at the end of each job
  • Fault-find tripping circuits with a multimeter, insulation tester and loop tester
  • Terminate armoured cable and fit glands on three-phase motor supplies
  • Run conduit, trunking and cable tray on new builds and renovations
  • Install and wire distribution boards, isolators and earth leakage units to SANS 10142-1
  • Test installations and issue Certificates of Compliance where your registration allows

Must-haves

  • Comfortable working at heights on ladders and in roof spaces
  • Registered with the Department of Employment and Labour as an Installation Electrician or holding a Wireman's licence
  • Solid working knowledge of SANS 10142-1 and the Electrical Installation Regulations
  • Your own basic hand tools and a calibrated multimeter
  • Clean criminal record, since you will work inside client homes

Nice if you have

  • N3 electrical trade theory on top of your trade test
  • Master Installation Electrician registration for three-phase CoCs

What you get

  • Company bakkie for call-outs and travel between sites
  • Provident fund and group risk cover after probation
  • Standby allowance when you are on the after-hours roster
  • Company-issued test instruments, calibrated every year

How to apply for this job

  1. Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.

  3. Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
  4. Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 7 working days.
