Texas Electrical License Registration Forms

Happy Friday! Most of us are ready and eager to start the weekend yesterday.  It's been pretty chilly around the Austin area and I tell you I haven't been happier to see a Friday in a long while.  We are on our way to the Houston seminar and it sure beats hanging out in the cold all week.

 Many guys have called asking us where they can find the applications for the Texas electrical license.   I know that TDLR updated some forms and got rid of a couple altogether, so I wanted to help corral the important and most frequently used ones into this blog for easy access.

 Just click on the link for the type of application you need and the application will open as a pdf file.

Texas Electricians- The End is Near- How to Avoid Getting Lost in the Shuffle

How to Avoid Getting Lost in the Shuffle If you haven't heard that the end of the 2011 NEC Exams is coming up, then you've been living under a rock or working way too hard. That's right guys, if you have applied to take your exam but have not yet passed or even taken the exam, you have a deadline.  As of September 1, 2014, the TDLR will only accept and recognize the 2014 version of the  National Electrical Code ®  on the field and in the testing site.  The exam will be based on the 2014 version of the book, you will still be allowed to bring in your 2011 but we do not recommend that.  If you already have your 2014, you must have already noticed that there a great deal of updates on the code.  Your first clue should be the number of pages, the book has gotten BIGGER!
