There are very few women in the Electrical field. The reason for this is not discriminatory hiring practices. The reason is the electrical work is hard work and women avoid occupations involving hard work. This is why there are so few women coal miners.
It's not that they're too weak to do construction work, there are many men in construction with slight builds, it's just they don't want or need to do hard work.
It should also be noted that women have options that men do not, for example, all men must work, every man must choose a career and pursue it diligently. For a woman however, a career is purely optional, she can marry and stay at home while her bills are paid by her husband and society accepts this without question. A woman can marry and work at trivial or "fun" jobs or even volunteer at animal shelters and suffer no financial difficulties.
A woman can even divorce her husband and receive monetary compensation in perpetuity which is seldom a career opportunity for men.
When you consider the vast career choices open to women in comparison to men, you'll stop wondering why you never see women doing serious construction work.
