I have UK city and guilds certificates for an electrician, can i translate them into college credits in the US?

I don't think a reputable university would let you do that, but why not work as an electrician? They make more money than college graduates. I guess all you need to know is that US mains electricity is 110V, 60 cycles. In my area, a mine electrician makes forty dollars an hour. My father was a master mining electrician.
