Announcement: Clarification regarding RIGL 5-6 from the Board of Examiners for Electricians

The Board of Examiners of Electricians confirms that the use of plug-in receptacle testers and testing buttons on GFCI receptacles do not require a license under RIGL 5-6, as these activities do not involve direct testing of the wiring. This clarification aims to help unlicensed individuals understand the requirements related to electrical work.
