Wage figures on this page are sourced from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (OEWS) program, May 2025 release. SOC code 47-2111 covers electricians across all industries, including union and non-union employment, in both the private and public sectors.
The median wage is the midpoint -- half of workers in that state earn more, half earn less. The mean wage is the average and can be pulled higher by top earners. For most purposes, median is the more useful benchmark.
Employment counts do not include self-employed workers. BLS OEWS is a survey-based program and estimates are subject to sampling error.
