"To qualify as an electrician, you must hold the Electrotechnical NVQ/SVQ (2356) at Level 3. There are differences in how these are structured around the UK, but all require practical work-based experience and most are obtained via a three- to four-year apprenticeship scheme outlined below. For details about how the Electrotechnical qualification is structured, see the Training section.
There are no formal academic entry requirements for an apprenticeship, although GCSEs (A-C)/S grades (1-3) in English, maths, design and technology and science subjects may be helpful. Applicants must also pass an aptitude test and colour vision assessment." |

you need a good grounding in basic maths english and some phisics as has already been pionted out but the level of maths depends on what type of electrical work you are going into an electrical engineer will need a deaper understanding of the theory or electricity (eg ohms law, how the frequency of the electricity will be efected by what you are doing etc) but you still need a good level of inteligence to be an electrician but there are variouse types there also speak to a GOOD local electrician and find out from him/her where they studdied |

Yes, you need a reasonable knowledge of maths in order to do cable fault calculations. You also need to be able to fill in inspection reports and other documents. |

There are math formulas an electrician needs to know about. He needs to know about how much electricity a particular source can generate and handle. |

Whenever I employ electricians I ask them if they can tell me Ohm's law. Very few can. You need to know enough maths to understand ohm's law. its not that much |

Math is important if you plan to take courses in electrical theory.
Mechanical skills help. Also take an apprentice position as the journeyman electrician will help you learn the trade and hone your skill. |

No, but you need to be switched on, a bit of a bright spark. |

really, you need training so you can start your own business, otherwise you'll always be an assistant or an apprentice. ;) and perhaps once you've got qualified you can become a member of the IEE (Institue of Electrical Engineers).
check out your local college though they should be able to help. |

To be a good electrician you need both theoretical comprehension and practical know how of the subject. Regarding the former while maths is relevant and at very highest level this can include differentital calculus, it is PHYSICS you really must have a thorough understanding of, as well as radiocommunication and electronic theory. Practical know how comes from experience of dealing with electrical devices and circuitry.The more such practical experience you have the better you are, even if you lack a high degree of theoretical comprehension. |
