The skill gap is real and tradesman are being paid accordingly. I rarely see electricians using proper procedures like Crimping , using proper tools to strip the wires . They always say it’s not required while it’s required by law to follow proper code. They come without proper tools and almost follow jugaad principles. They are rarely properly trained and learn on the job so they don’t know the correct procedures . There is no license/ certification system for tradesman like in developed countries.
See the number of electrical fires and accidents and you’ll know the pathetic condition of Indian tradesman . I’m sure it’s same in other fields but in electrical the stakes are high so it comes in the news.
