A maintenance electrician license holder must renew the license biennially prior to the license expiration date and must request inspection or waiver of inspection of electrical work prior to renewal. The application for renewal of a maintenance electrician's license must contain a statement that the holder assumes all risk, liability, and responsibility for electrical work done by the holder's employees and must be accompanied by a renewal fee of eighty dollars. All electrical violations found by an inspection must be corrected before the commission renews the holder's maintenance electrician license.

The commission may waive inspection if the commission receives written confirmation that no maintenance work has occurred in the preceding two years or receives an inspection report of maintenance electrical work from a qualified third party that has inspection authority over the maintenance license holder that is recognized by the commission, as defined in § 20:44:23:05.
