\_ For your own safety that's what you should use though.
I believe there was a discussion on AZIPA within the last year that
beat this to death. Visit them for details/discussion.
IANAL, but I believe the summary goes like:
* handyman -- no license -- residential, NOT for major (any?) profit, and
can't be done often: eg you can wire your house and maybe your
mom's but that's about it.
* professional -- license -- knows about building codes, wiring
practices, and you (the business) can point the fickle legal
finger of fate onwards if wiring is determined to be the
reason why a fire breached a firewall. Check with contracting
board for complaints, BBB, etc.
* If you're a business, get somebody with a license, bonds, and a good
reputation.
YMMV.

\_ I would advise all that are considering this to know that
\_ Arizona Law requires licensed contractors (classification
\_ K-67 or L-67 for commercial, C-12 for residential) to do
\_ this kind of work. To be a contractor, you have to fill
\_ out a ton of paperwork, have a business, be licensed,
\_ insured, and bonded.
