PLUMBER vs ELECTRICIAN: Which Is A Better Trade?

[@skonyc3164]

I'm an Electrician. My advice to anyone in the trades is to get along with all the trades on your site. You are going to need something from them and they from you as well. Work together not against each other and your job will be 100% more productive.

[@MandenTV]

I’m an apprentice plumber and I’ve always heard of all of the shade that plumbers and electricians throw at each other. But I’ve gotten along great with them and other crews, no crap-flinging, asking each other how we can stay out of everyone’s way and helping each other out when they need a tool or something handed to them.

EZ question to answer. Plumbing is recession proof. You could always wait to build your deck or room addition but you can’t wait next month replace your busted water heater or worse when you need to flush your toilets. My boss was an electrician that owned his company and he told me that he sold his electrical company when he realized that he could only upgrade a buildings electrical one time and return to that same building in like 30-40 years but a plumber can continue to work on that same building replacing and upgrade the plumbing year round :)

[@bradc7767]

As an Electrician myself , if you want to be praised by other trades , just grab a broom at the end of the day and CLEAN YOUR MESS. You'd think they just saw you walk on water!! Just kidding. Learn how to work WITH other trades. IE: plan ahead with them , learn their requirements as well as teach them yours , let the plumbers go first!!! (I can't stress that one enough!) . On a metal stud job , do NOT run wiring through a floating stud mid point! Top or bottom only... The sheetrockers will thank you! Piece your conduits in 3 foot sections in a cinder block wall (the brickys will buy you a beer for doing that) , mark your box centers and heights on the floors to avoid them getting buried or make them easy to locate if they do , etc.. little things like this you don't get taught in any trade school.. They get taught on the job!

[@llama1917]

being a reasonably competent amateur at both, one major difference to point out: it's pretty easy to make a mediocre electrical connection that works "fine" for decades like in a light fixture. splice the wires shove them into the box, it's probably fine as long as someone's not plugging in a vacuum. on the other hand there's no such thing as a "quick splice pipes" or even screwing in a faucet. water under pressure will always always always find a way to leak and create a disaster within a couple of years. and there's no such thing as test leads or alligator clips for pipe checkup. imagine how awesome it would be if there was a clamp-on thing like a current meter for measuring pipe flow!

But when they aren't, your abilities allow you the leeway to work for whatever company has the compensation, work-life balance and the culture that you want. I just feel like people coming into these trades aren't told enough that you really do get out of this what you put into it.

I would definitely be broke and living in an apartment. Choosing a career, think of how the education will help you outside of work. Take a professional chef. He will make an amazing dinner for the family, but hire an electrician to install a ceiling fan. Cost, $200 or so? That's a lot of dinners to make. Now fix your car.
