§ 22-106. Required.

No person shall install electric wiring and apparatus within any building in the city for use in connection with electric light, heat or power without first appearing in person or by duly authorized representative at the city hall and securing a master electrician's license; provided, however, that such license shall not be required of a homeowner installing electric wiring and apparatus for use in connection with electric light, heat or power within his own property boundaries, providing such work is done by himself and is used exclusively by him or his family. Such privilege does not convey the right to violate any of the provisions of this code, nor is it to be construed as exempting any such property owner from obtaining a permit and paving the required fees therefor, provided further that such licenses shall not be required of maintenance personnel employed by governmental as well as private entities while engaged in services for their employer.
