=== How to Get the Job ===
== Overview ==
To start the '''Electrician''' job, you need to visit the job locations in '''Los Santos''' or '''San Fierro'''.


* '''Los Santos''': Near the Pay 'n' Spray.
Electrician is a task-based Civilian job.
* '''San Fierro''': Near the Motorbike Shop.


Once you are near the job site, type '''/gps''' and search for '''Electrician''' to get directions. When you arrive at the location, enter the yellow marker to take the job. Upon entering the job site, you'll be teleported inside a building where you will receive tasks related to electrical and network issues.
You take the job in Los Santos or San Fierro, receive task tickets, travel to the marked location, and complete the task there.

=== How to Complete Electrician Tasks ===
Some wiring mistakes can seriously injure or kill you.
Once you start the job, you’ll see a list of tasks in your '''F5''' menu. The list will display the task number, the issue at the installation, the location of the task, and the distance from your current location.


To start a task:
== How To Start ==


# Select the task from the F5 menu.
To start working as an Electrician:
# Travel to the location marked on your map (use '''F11''' for map navigation).
# Once you arrive at the task location, step into the yellow marker and press '''N''' to begin.
Tasks are divided into three categories:


==== 1. Blown Cables ====
# Take the Electrician job in Los Santos or San Fierro.
This task requires you to repair blown cables by matching the colored wires:


* '''Yellow to Yellow'''
# Press F5 or use /jt to receive a task.
* '''Blue to Blue'''
* '''Red to Red'''
* '''Pink to Pink'''


Simply click on the wires that correspond to the same color. This is the simplest task, and if done correctly, it will always be successful.
# Read the ticket.


----
# Go to the marked location on your map.


==== 2. Circuit Breakers ====
# Complete the task.
For this task, you will need to reset the circuit breakers. They are numbered, and you must click them in ascending order (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). It’s a simple task, requiring you to click the breakers in the correct sequence.


----
A ticket shows the task type and location, and a marker appears on your map.


==== 3. Network Cable Failure ====
== How It Works ==
The most complicated task involves fixing network cables. Here’s how to complete it:


* You will be presented with two cables.
Electrician works through task tickets.
* The goal is to align them perfectly in the center of the screen, using the faint white line in the middle as a guide. The cables should not overlap but should be perfectly aligned.


If the cables aren’t aligned correctly, you will receive an error message. The possible error messages are:
When you get a task, the game gives you:


* '''Both cables not aligned''': Adjust both cables.
* The task type
* '''Left cable not aligned''': Fix only the left cable.
* The task location
* '''Right cable not aligned''': Adjust only the right cable.
* A marker on your map
* '''Cables are overlapping''': Move the cables apart.


----
You then travel to the location and complete the task there.


=== Important Tips ===
If a task is bugged, bad, or too far, you can reset it with /shift.


* '''/shift Command''': Use '''/shift''' to quickly reset the task locations if they are bugged or hard to reach.
== Commands ==
* '''Navigating Tight Spaces''': Use a '''BF-400 motorbike''' for easier access to hard-to-reach areas, especially in San Fierro’s narrow streets.
* '''Network Cable Task''': Focus on one cable at a time. I recommend starting with the left cable and adjusting the right one based on its alignment with the left. If in doubt, use '''space bar''' to quickly check the alignment.

Useful Electrician commands include:


=== Job Ranks & Requirements ===
* /jt
There are 10 levels in the '''Electrician''' job, based on the number of tasks completed.
* /gps
