He is a skilled professional that leans heavily on math and physics.

You must be thinking of an electrical engineer. Most electricians spend most of their time pulling wire and wiring receptacles especially if they are union.

I've been doing industrial electrical maintenance for thirty years. Most "electricians" couldn't figure out how to repair a drive or program the simplest PLC. Set up a motor control center, trouble shoot an emergency stop circuit.

These guys are way overpaid. Those that have their own business are a different story. At least they have to be able to estimate a job.

Understood but setting up 3 phase power is not for wire pullers.
