Confirm This Is the Right License for Your Work

Every state licensing board defines the exact project types, sizes, and trades that fall under each contractor classification. Review the scope below to make sure this license matches the work you actually do — then enroll in the seminar that prepares you for that exam the first time.

The Electrical Specialty Restricted Ground Water Pump (SP-WP) classification allows the licensee to install, maintain, or repair electrical wiring only as an incident to the licensee’s ground water pump business. It authorizes the licensee to install, maintain, or repair only wiring that is directly related to a ground water pump and that is restricted to circuits or part of circuits that operate at voltages not exceeding 600 volts phase–to-phase, is electrically isolated from the building wiring system by an over-current protective isolating device that has been installed complete with line-side connections by others, permanently and legibly marked to identify the equipment served by the device, and is located adjacent to the controller for the specific ground water pump equipment involved and within an enclosure intended solely for and limited to serving that equipment. Also, it authorizes the licensee to install, maintain, or repair only wiring that is directly related to a ground water pump and that originates at the load-side terminals of the protective isolating device and is not installed in a location considered as hazardous under the National Electrical Code.
