About this Master Electrician and Electrical Contractor package

How does the Master Electrician and Electrical Contractor exam work?

The Master Electrician and Electrical Contractor exam is a TDLR license exam given by PSI. TDLR approves your application first, then you schedule with PSI and have one year from the application date to pass.

• The Electrical Contractor license costs $110 a year and needs liability insurance of $300,000 per occurrence and $600,000 aggregate.
• There is no business or law exam for a Texas electrical contractor; the master electrician's PSI exam is the test.
• TDLR licenses Texas electricians, and PSI gives every exam with a 70 percent passing score on each portion.
• Since September 1, 2026, the exams are written to the 2026 National Electrical Code, the edition Texas adopted on July 28, 2026.
• The exams are open book: bring a soft-bound NEC, highlighted and noted before the exam, with only the publisher's permanent index tabs. Homemade and other tabs are not allowed.
• Licenses renew every year with 4 hours of continuing education covering the NEC, Texas electrician law and rules, and NFPA 70E.
