RE: Family visa
It is very difficult to get Family Visa for the Profession, Building Electrician, if your Sponsor/Company is situated in Jeddah Region and there is no any business in Riyadh/Dammam Region.  Recently, Istikhdaam in Riyadh and Dammam were apprved Family Visa without considering the profession,  Just on the basis of your income.
The most important factor which decides whether you can bring your family or not, is the profession mentioned in your iqama or residence permit. Note that this may not be your actual job title. For example, it is quite common for an engineer to be hired on a labor visa. But for all government transactions, it is the profession mentioned in your iqama which matters, not your job title.
Unfortunately, you are eligible to bring your family only for certain types of visas (like engineer, doctor, technician, etc), for bringing your family into the kingdom, the only difficult part is the profession mentioned in your iqama.
But if you are qualified, then the best way out is to get your profession changed as mentioned here (please click here) and then apply for a family visa.

RE: Family visa
For the technician proffession visa like Building Electrician you may get the visit visa for your family for the period of (03) three months and after that you can extend it.
