Commercial Electrical Maintenance Checklist for Texas Businesses

Downtime costs money. A simple maintenance routine catches problems before they shut you down. Use this checklist, and call a commercial electrician for anything beyond a visual check.

Monthly

• Test emergency and exit lighting
• Check for tripped breakers and reset logs
• Inspect extension cord use (a code violation when permanent)
• Verify GFCI protection in kitchens and wet areas

Quarterly

• Thermal scan of panels and disconnects
• Tighten lugs and inspect for discoloration
• Test surge protection indicators
• Check parking lot and sign lighting

Annually

• Full panel and load assessment
• LED lighting retrofit review (often 50–70% energy savings)
• Generator and transfer switch test
• Infrared inspection of motors and machinery feeds
