Can a municipality require me to register (and pay a registration fee) in addition to holding a state electricians license?
The law does not prohibit a municipality or region from regulating electricians or collecting registration fees. The only action prohibited by statute is that a municipality or region may not require a person to take an examination if that person holds the appropriate license issued under this chapter and is working within the scope of that license. Refer to Subchapter E. Regulation of Electricians by Local Governments, Sec. 1305.201. Municipal or Regional Regulation. More information, including a list of cities and their local electrical requirements is available online.
