Well the first thing I would notice as a prospective employer is......spelling and grammar;). I'm very picky about that, as would anyone else reading a CV I'd wager.


Run a spell check over it, check the grammar and punctuation and go from there. Sometimes less is more.
 
not bad but you need to refer to yourself in third person, try to avoid 'I am', for example instead of 'i am a qualified electrician' put simply, 'A qualified electrician who......'
 
Key words and phrases make your CV a bit more "Search" friendly most agencies HR depts now use databases where they input words to search CVs so making sure you have the qualifications and if your doing maintenance include things like if you work on invertors controls SCADA PLCS ect ect not quiet list it but make sure its there
