Find Out If Your Electrician Has A

LICENSE

Just because you find an electrician on the

internet or in a phone book doesn't mean they are licensed.

DID YOU KNOW...?

Electricians working in the State of Texas are

required to be licensed by the "Texas

Department of Licensing and Regulation".

There are 4 levels of licensing for Electricians.

1) Apprentice Electrician 2) Wireman Electrician 3) Journeyman Electrician 4) Master Electrician

1) Apprentice Electrician

Someone new to the trade is considered an Apprentice. Upon 2 years of supervised training and obtaining a passing score on an electrical exam, they become a Wireman Electrician.

2) Wireman Electrician

A Wireman Electrician is able to work unsupervised in any residential home.

They cannot work in the commercial field without a Journeyman Electrician present.

3) Journeyman Electrician

To be a Journeyman Electrician, one must complete 8000 hours of work under a Master Electrician and pass a written exam.

4) Master Electrician A Master Electrician is just that, a

Master.

All electrical contracting companies MUST have a Master Electrician on board to oversee the electrical work being performed on a daily basis.
