Imagine all the lights, computers, and machines we use every day. They all need electricity to work, and someone has to make sure it gets to them safely and correctly! That is what an Electrical Fitter does. They are like detectives for electricity, making sure all the wires and parts are put together perfectly. An Electrical Fitter builds, installs, and fixes electrical systems and equipment. This could be in big factories, on trains, in power stations, or even in large buildings. They read special drawings, which are like maps for wires, to put everything in the right place. They use tools to cut, strip, and connect wires, making sure everything is safe and works properly. It is a very important job because electricity needs to be handled carefully to avoid problems.
