| reply to Audiotech Re: Any splicers installers here????
Some electrcians deal with fibre, mostly larger shops, and mostly as part of "other" work...
Really depends on the shop, for the rate... When I started, splicing fibre was almost an art, and the money was better. Now that the machines are so automated, it's almost (and I hate to say this) dropped to a semi-skilled job, and pulled the rate down with it. I would expect to start in the high teens (18-19 bucks an hour) and work up from there, probably topping out at the 28-32/hr range... But again, different shops are going to range widely.
Other skills and certifications, like confined space entry, fall arrest, etc, are going to help.
Good luck!
