Owner Builder Affidavit—Electrical Contracting
DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
F.S. 489.503 (6) EXEMPTIONS
State law requires electrical contracting to be done by licensed electrical contractors. You have applied for a
permit under an exemption to that law. The exemption allows you,as the owner of your property,to act as your own
electrical contractor even though you do not have a license. You may install electrical wiring for a farm outbuilding
or a single-family or duplex residence. You may install electrical wiring in a commercial building the aggregate
construction costs of which are under$75,000. The home or building must be for your own use and occupancy. It
may not be built for sale or lease. If you sell or lease more than one building you have wired yourself within 1 year
after the construction is complete,the law will presume that you built it for sale or lease,which is a violation of this
exemption. You may not hire an unlicensed person as your electrical contractor. Your construction shall be done
according to building codes and zoning regulations. It is your responsibility to make sure that people employed by
you have licenses required by state law and by county or municipal licensing ordinances. Failure to do so may result
in a liability for you!
To qualify for this exemption under this subsection, an owner must personally appear and sign the building
permit application.

further understand that any violation of the terms of the owner/ ilder exemption shall be reported by the
