Electrical contracts — common questions
How do I get government electrical contracts?expand_more
Register free on SAM.gov under NAICS 238210, keep your licensing and insurance current, and watch installations near you. Electrical work rides on the same repair-and-renovation pipeline as the other facility trades, so Sources Sought responses and small first task orders are the standard way in.
What size counts as small for an electrical contractor?expand_more
NAICS 238210 (Electrical Contractors) uses a receipts-based standard — most independent electrical contractors qualify. Self-certify your size in SAM.gov and you're eligible for small-business set-asides.
Do I need bonding for electrical jobs?expand_more
Standalone electrical work under the bonding threshold may not require it, but electrical scopes inside construction projects usually do. If you'll prime rather than sub, establish surety credit early.
