What are the consequences of non-payment of an Administrative Penalty?

If an Administrative Penalty is not paid after 30 days following the date of an order, interest will be applied and the Electrical Safety Authority can initiate collection proceedings. 

If the Administrative Penalty is issued to an unlicensed contractor, they could be refused a Master Electrician and/or Electrical Contractor Licence for non-payment. If the Administrative Penalty is issued to a licensee, their licence could be refused renewal, suspended or revoked for non-payment.
