An electrician installs wiring, fuses and other electrical components in homes, businesses, and factories. He or she also maintains that equipment. In addition to working with high voltage wiring, many electricians install and maintain voice, data and video wiring. An electrician can specialize in either maintenance or construction but many work in both areas.

House wiring involves knowing the required wires for each circuit e.g 1.5mm, 2.5mm. For lighting points and sockets and the required protective devices (MCB's) at the distribution box. Including earthing. For domestic wiring. But in commercial wiring, we have a different senerio depending on the type of commercial wiring.

There are two basic methods of wiring lights - by ceiling rose and by junction box.

Ceiling rose electric lighting circuitSystems using the ceiling roses make all the connections at the ceiling rose. While this removes the need for one junction box per lamp, it is often more awkward for the average diy'er.

Junction box light circuitWith the junction box system (an old standard but still found in older installations), a cable is taken to a series of junction boxes, one for each light fitting/switch. The junction boxes are generally located between the ceiling joists or under floorboards close to the switch. Junction box type connections are required for fluorescent lights and other fittings that do not use a ceiling rose.
