What is Electrical Contractor License Registration in Andhra Pradesh | Class A & B?

Andhra Pradesh follows a structured licensing system primarily categorized into Class 'A' (Unlimited voltage capacity for High Tension/HT works) and Class 'B' (Restricted to Low Tension/LT works up to 650V). Obtaining a Class 'A' license in AP requires a firm to demonstrate superior technical capability through a team of certified Electrical Supervisors and Wiremen who must hold valid competency certificates issued or endorsed by the AP Electrical Licensing Board. A critical requirement is the ownership of mandatory testing instruments, such as the 500V/1000V Insulation Tester (Megger) and Earth Tester, which must be calibrated and accompanied by valid test reports from authorized labs. The registration process in Andhra Pradesh involves several stages, from initial filing via the AP CEIG portal or Meeseva to the payment of fees through the authorized Treasury Challan (CFMS). For out-of-state firms looking to enter the AP market, the "Endorsement" or "Reciprocity" registration of their technical staff's permits is a vital prerequisite. Shree Meera Corp acts as your professional liaison throughout the state. We manage the entire lifecycle of your application—from drafting the specific Bank Solvency Certificate to coordinating with the Electrical Inspector for the physical verification of tools and documents.
