N.J. Admin. Code § 13:31-3.6

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 24, December 18, 2024

Section 13:31-3.6 - Identification card required

(a) At the time of triennial renewal of the license and/or business permit, the Board shall furnish a wallet size identification card to every licensee. The card shall be used exclusively by the licensee in the conduct of his or her practice. A licensee who willfully or negligently allows an unlicensed or an unauthorized person to use his or her identification card shall be deemed to have engaged in occupational misconduct and shall be subject to disciplinary action as shall be imposed by the Board pursuant to authority granted by N.J.S.A. 45:5A-1 et seq., 45:1-14 et seq. and N.J.S.A. 45:1-21 et seq. The licensee shall be required to present the identification card upon request to the appropriate duly licensed inspection agency upon all applications for electrical permits.

(b) Use of an identification card by any person other than the licensee to whom it is issued shall be deemed to be the use or employment of dishonesty, fraud, deception, misrepresentation, or false pretense. Such conduct shall be unlawful and may be grounds for the suspension or revocation of the license of the unauthorized user if he or she is already licensed by the Board or may result in other disciplinary action against such unauthorized user by the Board pursuant to N.J.S.A. 45:1-21 et seq. With respect to an unlicensed user, such conduct shall be grounds for the refusal to issue a State license at any point in the future or any other action permitted by law pursuant to the provisions of N.J.S.A. 45:1-14 et seq., including a finding that such person has engaged in the unlicensed practice of electrical contracting.

Amended by 47 N.J.R. 651(b), effective 3/16/2015.
