Electricians are licensed for high voltage cabling installation, so with all due respect to our electrical trade friends, we recognize their talent. Ultimately, electricians do not work with technology, networking, or data, they work with electricity.
Certified Premises Cabling technicians work with technology, networking and data, they install the networking or structured cables to industry standards. So the truth is you should never hire an electrician to handle your network cabling job, just as you would never hire a Cabling technician to perform an electrical job.
Each profession is different and in the end hiring an electrician to preform a network cabling job will not save you money.
