In-person · Las Vegas, NVElectrical safety training in Las Vegas, NV
Las Vegas runs on buildings that never close, from Strip resorts to Switch's Core Campus. We train the facilities electricians, engineers and contractors who maintain them, at your property or in an in-person class we set up in Las Vegas when you ask.
Nevada runs its own OSHA-approved state plan. Private employers here are inspected by Nevada Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Division of Industrial Relations, Department of Business and Industry, not federal OSHA. Every class is live, on the 2027 edition of NFPA 70E, and taught by a Certified Safety Professional. Nevada electrical safety training requirements →
Among the teams we have trained in the last year
Four ways to train your Las Vegas crew
Crews we train in and around Las Vegas: casino resorts and hospitality, convention and event venues, data center operations, military and federal contractors, manufacturing, electrical contractors and public works.
What the class covers for Las Vegas crews
A resort that never closes still needs maintenance shutdowns. We cover how to plan them and how to justify and permit the energized work that cannot wait.
Conventions and concerts bring temporary distribution, portable generators and quick connections into halls built for other loads. Temporary power is still electrical work, and the same rules apply.
Critical facilities techs at Las Vegas colocation sites work on UPS systems, switchgear and generators that carry live customer load. We cover maintenance planning and stored-energy hazards.
Nevada has no statewide journeyman license. A Las Vegas employer has to define who is qualified, and our documented Competency Check supports that record.

Las Vegas and Nevada: what applies to your crews
Enforcement: Nevada OSHA
Nevada OSHA, part of the Division of Industrial Relations, enforces workplace safety for private employers and state and local government across the Las Vegas Valley.
Federal sites: federal OSHA
Federal OSHA keeps jurisdiction over federal employers and private-sector work on military bases. A contractor working at Nellis AFB answers to federal OSHA for that job.
Licensing and NFPA 70E
The Nevada State Contractors Board licenses C-2 electrical contractors, and there is no statewide journeyman license. NFPA 70E is the consensus standard employers use to show how OSHA's electrical rules are met.
Las Vegas's electrical work environment
The resort corridor is the biggest electrical customer in the valley. Casino resorts run 24 hours a day, and convention halls and arenas turn over shows on tight schedules. Their engineering departments maintain switchgear, emergency systems and miles of distribution while guests are in the building.
Las Vegas is also a data center town. Switch is headquartered here, and its Core Campus has 11 operating data centers with a 12th planned. Google opened a data center on a 64-acre site in neighboring Henderson in 2020.
Construction keeps adding load. Brightline West began building its high-speed rail line to Southern California in 2024, and the Southern Nevada Water Authority is building a $1.4 billion tunnel and pumping station from Lake Mead.
NV Energy in Southern Nevada
NV Energy serves the Las Vegas Valley through its southern system, formerly Nevada Power. It is owned by Berkshire Hathaway Energy and serves about 1.3 million customers statewide.
Large customers here have taken power supply into their own hands before. In 2016 Switch paid a $27 million exit fee to leave NV Energy supply for its own solar projects. Customer-owned solar and storage tied into a building's distribution add sources that do not go dead when the utility feed opens.

What the people in the room say
“Virtual can never replace hands-on, but the engagement from our instructor and the class made it feel more engaging than some in-person courses I've taken.”
“Probably one of the most useful safety courses I've ever attended. Rick genuinely cares about people and their well-being.”
“This is the 2nd arc flash training course I've taken and the class was amazing. I feel like I'm leaving the training safer than before I took this class.”
