Notes
Mississippi does not use a statewide individual journeyman electrician license for general practice. The State Board of Contractors instead licenses electrical contracting classifications such as Electrical Work and Residential Electrical, and its current reciprocity materials note reciprocal treatment with the Alabama Electrical Board for qualifying examined licensees.
