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.
