No person, firm or corporation shall engage in the business of
wiring, rewiring, installing, repairing or altering any electrical
wiring, or installing or repairing any electrical apparatus,
appliances or fixtures of any kind or description, as an electrical
contractor within the limits of any city or county within the
provisions of this act without securing from the joint electrical
examining and appeal board herein created, a license. Said
applicant shall file with the electrical inspector, an application
showing the name of the person, firm or corporation in whose name it
is desired that the license be issued, the kind of license applied
for, the name of the certificate holder, the number and date of such
certificate, and such further and other information as may be
required by the electrical inspector. Said application shall be
signed by the applicant, or a member of the firm, or an authorized
officer of the corporation making the application and shall also be
signed by the holder of the certificate and shall be attached to the
application. The electrical inspector, if said application is
correct, shall approve said application and retain for his file, the
certificate of the joint electrical examining and appeal board, upon
furnishing the applicant with a proper receipt therefor; if such
certificate is withdrawn by the owner thereof, said license shall
become inoperative and no further permits shall be issued by the
electrical inspector under such license. Such license may be
reinstated and rendered operative by the filing with the electrical
inspector, of another proper certificate of the joint electrical
examining and appeal board.
Violation of any of the provisions of this act shall constitute
a misdemeanor and shall be punished as provided by a maximum fine of
One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) upon conviction thereof. The
electrical inspector shall be entitled to bring any action at law or
equity to restrain the threatened or continued violation of any of
the provisions of that portion of this act relating to electrical
codes.
