Hey Don,
I think you only need that license if you are doing electrical work.
This is something that your installer should have. If you decide to
apply for the license find out the requirements BEFORE you let them
interrogate you. In most states you have to had worked for a licensee
for a couple of years to qualify. Many people get letters from past
employers as per this qualification although they work the two years in
about two minutes.
