Which CT classifications count as electricians

• ELC — Electrical Contractor — unlimited, limited, or limited solar

A record's classifications array carries these codes, so you can tell a licence that covers the work from one that merely exists.

Run it

curl "https://contractor-license-verification2.p.rapidapi.com/v1/licenses/CT/ELC.0125180-E1" \
  -H "X-RapidAPI-Key: YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "X-RapidAPI-Host: contractor-license-verification2.p.rapidapi.com"

ELC.0125180-E1 is a real CT licence (LIBERTY BUILDERS) in this trade, so that call works as written.

Before you rely on it

ELC is also the code on Connecticut's 25,578 electrical journeypersons, who are individuals employed by a contractor rather than businesses you can hire. This API returns only the contractor credentials, so a journeyperson's number will not be found here — which is the right answer when the question is who you are paying.

What Department of Consumer Protection does not publish

• Surety bond
• Workers' compensation
• General liability insurance
• Disciplinary actions
• The qualifying individual behind a licensed company

Full coverage detail, including the caveats that apply to every Connecticut lookup, is on the Connecticut page.
