ARTC
I have just been granted a Electrical Fitter ARTC, I applied for an Electrical Mechanic so I am a little disappointed but also happy to pass.
How bad is this ARTC, will it cause many problems for getting fully licensed.
Any help appreciated.

Re: ARTC
It really depends which state you are intending on living in, or rather on which route you take to a licence. I believe (please double check this though) that you can apply for an unrestricted licence in South Australia with a successful pass of the wiring rules exam from PEER and an ARTC (fitters). The form for SA says:
If you are recognised as an Electrician, Electrical Fitter or Electrical Mechanic, you may apply for a restricted registration with the condition: any electrical work under the supervision of a
registered electrical worker.
To have this limitation removed or to apply for an unrestricted registration, you will also be required to provide evidence of completion of the approved AS/NZS 3000:2000 Wiring Rules course and exam.

but maybe e-mail them to be sure. If you then want to work in a different state you can just apply under the mutual recognition thing.
