PWD Electrical Wireman Permit in Maharashtra: ITI Electrician Exemption, Practical Test & Experience Rules

Acquiring the PWD Electrical Wireman Permit in Maharashtra

Under Rule 29 of the Central Electricity Authority Regulations, no person is permitted to carry out electrical wiring, installation, or jointing works on any installation connected to supply systems unless they hold a valid Wireman Permit granted by the Licensing Board. Every licensed Electrical Contractor in Pune must employ licensed Wiremen to execute field installations.

Technicians who have successfully completed the 2-year ITI Electrician or ITI Wireman course from an NCVT/SCVT recognized institute in Maharashtra are entitled to direct exemption from examination and can obtain the Wireman Permit upon application. Non-ITI experienced wiremen can secure the permit by clearing the annual Wireman Examination featuring practical jointing, pipe conduit threading, and safety tests.
