Electrical Permits are generally issued only to State of Hawaii Licensed Electrical Contractors for work within the scope of their license classifications. A State of Hawaii licensed Supervising Electrician or Journey Worker can apply for a Electrical Permit for their Owner Occupied dwelling only. There are no other Home Owner-Builder Exemptions or Handy Man Exemptions for Electrical Work in Hawaii. Hawaii State Law requires anyone performing Electrical installations to be a State Licensed Electrician, HRS 448E. Anyone offering their services to the Public to perform electrical installations in exchange for payment is also required to be a State Licensed Electrical Contractor, HRS 444.
