hi mate i'm in the same boat as you. looking for a career change but can't afford the pay cut. i've done 3 years 2330 and have finished L3. i'm doing my 17th edition exam on monday. i've hardly done more than wire a plug in those 3 years but got distinctions across the board. being in the trade will obviously help in the last year but not a nessesity. i have friends who are sparkies and get the odd wk/end work but nothing i'd call real experience as it's too few and far between. unfortunatley though there comes a time when you're gonna have to take that leep into being an electricians boy. and i'm afraid only you are gonna know when the time is right for you. for me it's not yet.but in answer to your first question i would say YES you are in the right course.
