While both residential and commercial electrical work involve similar principles, there are significant differences in complexity, codes, and requirements.

Commercial systems use three-phase power vs single-phase residential, require more complex code compliance, involve higher voltages, need more robust wiring and conduit, require emergency lighting and backup systems, and demand more frequent maintenance.
