Find a licensed Texas electrician for your EV charger

A Level 2 charger usually means a new 240-volt circuit, and sometimes a bigger panel. In Texas that work has to be done under a TDLR-licensed electrical contractor. Every business below holds an active license in the state file.

Where this data comes from

Common questions

Does an electrician need a Texas license to install an EV charger?

Yes. Electrical work in Texas must be done by TDLR-licensed electricians, and a business that contracts to do electrical work must hold an Electrical Contractor license and be, or employ, a Texas master electrician. A narrow exemption lets owner-occupants do some work on their own home, but city rules still apply. See TDLR's compliance guide.

How do I check a Texas electrician's license?

Use TDLR's free license search and confirm the business holds an active Electrical Contractor license. Every listing on this site shows the license number and expiry date from the TDLR file.

What insurance must a Texas electrical contractor carry?

TDLR rules (16 TAC §73.40) require general liability coverage of at least $300,000 per occurrence, $600,000 aggregate and $300,000 for products and completed operations. Workers' compensation is not mandatory, so ask whether the crew is covered.

Which electrical code applies in Texas?

TDLR adopted the 2026 National Electrical Code effective September 1, 2026, with a limited Texas exception for GFCI protection on certain outdoor outlets. Cities adopt codes on their own schedule, so your permit office may still enforce an earlier edition.

Can I still claim the federal tax credit for a home EV charger?

Not for new installs. The IRS says the section 30C credit is not allowed for property placed in service after June 30, 2026. Some utilities, such as Austin Energy, still offer their own charger rebates — see our rebates guide.

Does a “Solar” or “EV” in a company's name mean it is certified for that work?

No. The TDLR Electrical Contractor license covers electrical work generally; it does not certify specialties. We show words from company names only as a hint — ask each contractor how many chargers, panel upgrades or generators they have installed.
