Unlicensed Electricians

 

An unlicensed contractor was convicted for the third time since January 2015 and received fines totalling $10,000 on charges relating to working without an electrical contractor’s licence. Paul Mullen, who owns and operates Total Generator, pleaded guilty in a Toronto court on Apr. 13, 2015 to allowing an unlicensed individual to perform electrical work.

Mr. Mullen was previously convicted and fined this year in Owen Sound on January 7 and on April 7 in Barrie for multiple violations associated with not having an electrical contractor licence and failing to apply for an inspection. In a related case, Glen Martin was convicted and fined $2,625 for working without an electrical contractor licence and reconnecting power without authorization. Martin is also facing additional charges.
