I dont even know what a Masters title is, around here your a E1 or a E2, E1 being a legit Electrical Contractor, E2 being a journeyman, but a E2 can do EVERYTHING an E1 can as long as employed by an E1....

Some states still use the "Master Electrician" classification, however I think "Electrical Contractor" is a lot more appropriate (and accurate.)

I thought everyone knew the master was Bruce Lee-roy, from Barry Gordy's, Last Dragon.

In Wisconsin an Electrical Contractor must hold a Master Electrician license or have a licensed Master Electrician on the payroll. In most jurisdictions only a Master Electrician or a homeowner can pull a permit.

Same here in Texas. An EC doesn't have to know the difference between #12 and 4/0 as long as he can hire a Master.

Having the same title does not mean equality. There are great master electricians and there are so so master electricians. There are great surgeons and so so surgeons, etc...
The great ones have great reputations and usually make the big bucks. Nothing wrong with that.
