If you want to pull permits, get disconnected and reconnected by the electrical providers, you're gonna need a license. Also if you get an inspection on your house because you want to sell it and they find that unlicensed work was performed and no inspection found on file from when work was performed, guess what, the city can make you rip it out and redo it by licensed individual subject to a municipal inspector. Now can you do electrical 'work' on residential without a permit or license? yes and sometimes it might be ignored but if the inspector(s) want to not ignore it, they can make you go by the regulations of your area.
