6 High-Tech Systems
High Job Satisfaction
Back in 2016, Klein Tools’ State of the Industry survey found that 51% of electricians with at least 10 years of experience preferred working on high-tech installations. This was up from just 24% in 2015.
Working on more complex systems doesn’t just present challenges that allow electricians to improve their craft, it also invites collaboration. On a commercial job site implementing a high-tech system, experienced electricians can mentor young electricians and apprentices, lessening the skills gap and even bringing new ideas to the forefront.
Today, electricians who install these high-tech systems have to be almost as knowledgeable as the engineers who design them.
As the smart tech industry is expected to double in size by 2025, it’s only a matter of time until installing smarter control systems becomes just another part of the job.
