Licensing Requirements for OR

[Griff58]

Can anyone direct me to information on what Oregon's licensing requirements are for wiring home theater and/or whole house communications? We are exploring doing prewire and install of home theater, home networking etc...

Thanks!

Griff

The installers need an LEA and the business needs a CLE at the minimum

Can't they do that work with an LEB? I thought you could do non life safety stuff with the LEB license?

Daron, you're right. When this all started (LEA, LEB) it was rumored that an LEB was for HVAC only and an LEA was for everything else but looking on the site:

I was wrong. Thanks for the heads up.

Well licensing in Oregon has been every bit of confusing. I think they are done messing with it now. Geez franklin, you must be an hour away from me or so??

Thank you guys! I appreciate the input and will see if we can't muddle through the process.
If you are ever coming through the dry side of the state, let me know and I will buy you a coffee...or whatever refreshment you prefer! 8)

Thanks again,
