The eligibility criteria for the ITI Electrician course generally involve 10th grade pass (or similar from any recognized board) to ensure the basics of mathematics and science are given to candidates. Candidates must be a minimum of 14 years old as it is the age limit in most cases for ITI programs. Some institutes may also have an upper age limit, often around 40 years, though this can vary.
Physical fitness is another parameter, because Electrician practice requires physical activity and handwork. As such, candidates may be required to submit a doctor's certificate of fitness. Institutions can also conduct entrance tests or interviews to check the aptitude and interest of the candidate in the trade. For all these parameters, well-fitted students will be fully geared to face technical and physical implications against the course that leads to a prosperous career in the electrical trade.
