I am a TEXAS Electrical Contractor, and I only do commercial work.
I am the sole owner for my company.
I have been ask to be the master of record for another company
That does residential work. I have looked on the TDLR website
It only reference to a master of record for a sign company it does not
Say anything about being a Contractor and Master of record.

My question is can I be a Electrical Contractor and a Master Of Record for another Electrical Contracting company?

Some jurisdictions allow you to represent more than one company. Others do not.

You'll have to inquire at your local licensing office or board for details.
