Permits
Electrical permits and AEP service releases in San Angelo
The City of San Angelo requires an issued electrical permit for all electric work inside city limits. The City also inspects before AEP Texas can reconnect or energize a service.
Building Permits & Inspections
Community Development Building, 52 W. College Ave., first floor, San Angelo, TX 76903.
Phone 325-657-4210. Press 1 for inspections.
Open Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to noon and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Service releases to AEP
An electrical permit and a passing City inspection are required for every electric service release to AEP.
The City will not release service to the utility without a passing inspection.
- San Angelo has adopted the 2020 National Electrical Code and the 2021 International Residential Code.

- Your electrician pulls the permit and schedules the inspection. Keep the permit number for your records.
Outages
AEP Texas or your retail provider: who fixes an outage?
San Angelo is in the deregulated Texas power market. You buy electricity from a retail electric provider you choose, but AEP Texas owns the poles, lines and meters and restores outages.
So the company on your bill is often not the company that sends a line crew. Report a street or neighborhood outage to AEP Texas.
San Angelo is on the ERCOT grid. During Winter Storm Uri in February 2021, ERCOT ordered rotating outages across the state, and many homes lost power for long periods.
Outage checklist
- Check whether neighbors have power.
- Dark street: report it to AEP Texas.
- Only your home or one room dark: check the main breaker, then call an electrician.
- Run a generator only through a transfer switch or approved interlock. Never backfeed through an outlet.
West Texas weather
Heat, hail and San Angelo wiring
San Angelo has a semi-arid climate. The city averages about 30 days a year at 100 degrees or more, and it logged 100 such days in 2011.
Long AC run times load circuits, breakers and connections for months. Heat in attics and garages ages wire insulation and loosens connections, and that shows up as tripping breakers and warm outlets.
Storms bring a different risk. On May 28, 1995, a supercell hit San Angelo with giant hail and extreme winds. The Texas state climate office lists about $120 million in damage, 61 homes destroyed and more than 9,000 damaged.
Heat-season warning signs
- The AC breaker trips on hot afternoons
- Lights dim when the compressor starts
- A breaker or panel cover feels warm
- A meter mast or service drop bent by wind or hail
