16 TAC §21(l) requires that electrical power lines serving well sites and surface facilities be maintained to the National Electrical Code — and the Railroad Commission just ran the first cohort of inspectors through dedicated electrical-awareness training, with over 120 more coming through in the next nine months. A spreadsheet with one date column will not survive that. This tracks every line, its NEC inspection checklist, its re-inspection due date, and every open violation — in one place, with a printable audit pack ready before the inspector arrives.

Electrical power lines serving a well site or surface facility must be operated and maintained in accordance with the National Electrical Code. That is the statute the RRC is now actively training inspectors to enforce.
Grounding and bonding, overcurrent protection sizing, conductor condition, enclosure and weatherproofing, disconnect and lockout provision — the standard NEC field-inspection checklist, recorded per line, per inspection.
You set the re-inspection interval in months, per line, from your own procedure. There is no site-wide default. Overdue lines are flagged automatically from the last recorded inspection.
The first cohort of 14 Oil & Gas Division inspectors completed Electrical Power Awareness Training at the Quanta Advanced Training Center. The Commission plans to run more than 120 inspectors through the same programme over the next nine months, framed explicitly around "risks posed by improperly maintained electrical power lines at well sites."
The training exists to support enforcement of 16 TAC §21(l), tied directly to House Bill 143 and House Bill 2663 from the 89th Texas Legislature. Both passed with no recorded opposition in committee.
A line either passed its last NEC inspection or it did not, and either has a re-inspection date coming or it is already overdue. When an inspector asks, "when was this line last checked, and did it pass," the honest answer for most operators today is a search through paper or a shared spreadsheet nobody has opened in months.
This app exists so that answer is one tap away: which lines are current, which have an open violation, which are overdue — and a dated audit pack that prints the whole register in a form an inspector or an auditor can read.
Every line sits in exactly one band — the worst one that applies — so the register can be read from the top down. A line with nothing recorded is not treated as clean; it lands in the emptiest band of all, because no evidence is worse than bad evidence.
Well site or facility, circuit or asset ID, overhead or underground, voltage class.
Re-inspection interval in months, set per line from your own procedure. Never assumed.
Date, who inspected it, and a pass / needs-repair / fail state for all five NEC checklist points.
The finding, the required fix, who owns it, a due date, and a close-out date once it is resolved.
Every band tile opens the register filtered to exactly those lines — nothing counted that you cannot drill into.
A dated audit page: every line, its last checklist, its next due date, and why anything is flagged.
Built for the same shape as our other field-inspection trackers, so if your crew already uses one of our compliance logs, this one will feel familiar on day one.
It does not perform an NEC inspection and does not decide whether a line is compliant. It does not replace an electrician's judgment, RRC or PUC guidance, or your operator's own procedure. It records what was inspected, when, what passed or failed, and what corrective action is outstanding.
Everything stays on your device. Nothing is uploaded, no account is created, and the app keeps working when the field has no bars.
