Sixteenth edition of the TDLR FLASH - Newsletter of the Texas Electrical Safety and Licensing Program March 2011
Welcome to the TDLR FLASH
Our newsletter is intended to keep city officials and electricians throughout Texas informed of the Texas Electrical Safety and Licensing Act and TDLR’s efforts to enforce the associated requirements. To receive news or updates on the electrical program you may go to http://www.license.state.tx.us/newsletters/TDLRnotificationLists.asp. You are also invited to interact with us via Facebook at facebook.com/TDLRLicense or Twitter at twitter.com/TDLRLicense
2011 NEC Code Adoption & State Electrical Exams
TDLR is mandated by state law to adopt the National Electrical Code (NEC) as the electrical code for the state which establishes the "minimum standard" for all electrical work in Texas that is covered by the Electrical Safety and Licensing Act. Soon, we will be proposing rule amendments to adopt the 2011 NEC and establish a target effective date of September 1, 2011. All non-exempt electrical work started on or after the effective date will have to be installed in accordance with the NEC 2011. For purposes of clarification, the “start” of electrical work is the day the electrician begins installing electrical materials or equipment within the residential or commercial building structure AND this would apply in the unincorporated areas of the state (i.e. where there are no city permitting requirements). Inside the corporate limits of a municipality (i.e. where there ARE city permitting requirements),electricians must abide by the permitting and electrical code requirements adopted under local ordinance. Additionally, the content of the state electrical examinations will be updated to incorporate the 2011 NEC references and requirements.
Journeyman Reciprocity Agreement with Wyoming
On May 4, 2010, Texas established a reciprocity agreement with the state of Wyoming, making this the third reciprocity agreement for the State of Texas. To be eligible for a reciprocal Wyoming license, Texas journeyman electricians must have passed a state-approved electrical licensing examination. Journeyman electricians who received a license under the provisions of the Texas Electrical Safety and Licensing Act without passing the ICC Texas or Texas exam, including those who passed an exam administered by a regional or municipal authority, are not eligible for a reciprocal license.
Monthly “Licensing Sweeps”
TDLR’s monthly “licensing sweeps” continue. Our most recent activities over the last year included visits to the incorporated and unincorporated areas of:
Collin, Bandera, Kerr, Uvalde, Burnet, Real, Smith, Gregg, Angelina, Nacogdoches, Lake Brownwood, Comal, Travis, Blanco, Llano, Nueces, Aransas, San Patricio, Bee, Goliad, Johnson, Washington, Harris, Hamilton, Waller, Bastrop, Galveston, Orange, Jefferson, Williamson, Wichita, Archer, Clay, Titus, Red River, and Lamar Counties.
The “licensing sweeps” are intended to curtail unlicensed activity by establishing a TDLR presence, educating the public on the state electrical licensing requirements, and verifying that electrical work is being performed by licensed electricians in accordance with state law and rules. If you would like to coordinate for a license sweep in your area please contact Jerry Daniel at jerry@license.state.tx.us or (512) 799-1489.
City and Town Electrical Requirements
We have posted a webpage list of local electrical requirements (i.e. code, permitting, licensing, etc…) for many cities throughout the state. We encourage you to review the most current information that we have on record for your city. If you have not provided the agency with your local requirements OR if you need to update us on any changes, please do so by utilizing the Municipal Electricians Requirements Questionnaire. We want to assist in keeping all electricians in Texas adequately informed, so please get us the information as soon as you can. Your input is invaluable!
TDLR encourages all persons interested in the electricians program to review the proposed rule revisions on the TDLR website at http://www.license.state.tx.us/electricians/elecprop.htm .
