Daily vs Hourly vs Price-Work Electrician Rates: What UK Electricians Actually Earn

Ask an electrician how much do electricians make and you'll get three completely different answers depending on whether they're paid hourly under a JIB agreement, working CIS day rates through an agency, or doing price-work on new build housing. A £20.25 per hour JIB rate sounds modest compared to a £300 day rate, which in turn sounds pedestrian compared to a domestic installer claiming £55 per socket and completing ten points per day.
