You will more than likely need a licence before you have much success with work as an Electrician. Take a look in the Electricians forum to get lots of info on licencing etc in Australia. http://britishexpats.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=97

I have several relatives who are sparkies by trade working here in Perth .............. plus many friends and several clients as well. I also have a good friend who works for an electrical contracting mob in Leederville somewhere .......................... they bring out fresh greenhorn sparkies from the UK on some sort of contract deal.............. not too sure about all the ins and outs but I can find out for you.

I'll be at a friend's 60th birthday party this coming Saturday and there will be dozens of British sparkies there............. will see what useful info i can glean from them for you?
