Question...
Can an Electrical company have two Masters registered under the same TECL#?
Our existing master is going to be phasing out, and we are wanting to go ahead and register our new one so there is no lapse.
 
In NC large companies had many qualifiers, they were employed by the companies and were normally officers, as in vice presidents, secretaries, PM'S, etc ....

Try Texas department of licensening and regulation
 
Thanks for the replies. I've seen the info on, "a master can only be assigned to one TECL unless he owns 50% or more of the other, then he can be assigned to two", but i can't find anything on whether a company can have two registered masters under one TECL#.
 
Looks like you have 30 days after he leaves.
