What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
North Carolina licenses electrical contractors through the State Board of Examiners of Electrical Contractors (NCBEEC). For an Unlimited license — which permits electrical projects of any value — the Board requires the applicant to demonstrate bonding ability: that they can obtain a $150,000 performance bond for electrical work.
A performance bond guarantees the completion of the work you contract for. If a bonded project is left unfinished and the project owner is harmed, they can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. It is not insurance for you; it backs your performance.
Many applicants satisfy the requirement with a Statement of Bonding Ability rather than a posted bond. If you need an actual $150,000 performance bond filed, this is it at $4,500 flat — and if the Board accepts a statement of bonding ability instead, tell us and we'll point you the right way.
