TDLR News
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.
