Electric Contractor or Electrical Contractor

[Buck Parrish]

I'm getting ready to do some more advertising. What do most of you like best, Electric Contractor or Electrical Contractor ?

Electrical Contractor sounds more grammatically correct.

Buck, Check out the yellow pages.

verbs and nouns and adjectives, oh my!

Just remember that the important word is **contractor**
and that working with the E sheets is merely incidental to that.

Electrical Contractor sounds more grammatically correct.

True - but will say if you are going to do web based advertising, have the person doing your site tag it with both, and include misspellings, as well as every service you do or can think of in the meta-tagging - see this post from last night.

I agree, I don't think I've ever heard of a company call themselves an Electric Contractor.

No offense intended Buck.

I like "we does 'lectric and 'lectrical"

Electrical contractor IMO has a more pleasing continuity.

[Article 90.1]

Many, many moons ago we were called "electragists" and "electragicians." This was from a first year apprenticeship lesson.

But my favorite is: "At first I couldn't spell electrician, now I are one."

 

[Buck Parrish]

Pretty good stuff. Thanks

 

[brian john]

I'm an electricin.

Proper English would be, I are an electrician.

 

[Buck Parrish]

Ha Ha , I like electrigicians, better.

 

[e57]

"Mi su electricidad" or "Soy un electricista"

I'll stick with "I play with wires," thank you very much.

Apologies to Article 90.1

Before I joined MH's Forum,

I couldn't even spell Electrical Contractor.

Now, I is one.

When you go home at night and turn off the lights, do you glow in the dark or light up lightbulbs like Uncle Fester? If not, then you would be an electrical contractor as opposed to an electric contractor. :grin:
