You wont earn £60k plus for a long time, even if you went self employed youd be lucky to turn that over for at least 2-3 years. Accounting into that annual cost of vehicle, tools, insurance, advertising, training.
 
To become an industry recognised electrican you will need the level 2 2365 then the level 3 2365 then you will have to work on site for your NVQ level 3 which is filling in a job portfolio and then when this is finished you will have to complete an AM2.

T0 work on Domestic properties you need the latest regs the level 2 testing 2392 and then join a CPS scheme.

There is a huge difference in length of time it takes to become either one.
