I am Marketing Director for CAST Lighting, a manufacturer of low voltage landscape lighting fixtures and systems.
I am also interested in the licensing requirements for low voltage lighting installers so I can put together a listing of States and regions with licensing information for each one.
Any ideas of how I can get this information without having to contact every local building dept. around the country?!
I believe there are some state-wide requirements as well as local. What state organizations would I contact?
Another question is about the politics of changes in requirements. Since Landscape Lighting is booming, I hear rumblings from electricians who see their 120v outdoor lighting jobs replaced by low voltage systems that can be installed by non-electricians. I've heard that there is a trend for stiffening the requirements to require electricians to do 12v lighting. Does anyone know of any information available on the politics of this shift?
