Texas SB1252 prohibits municipalities from regulating the installation or inspection of residential energy backup systems.

Texas SB1252 amends the Local Government Code to define a "residential energy backup system" as a system capable of providing no more than 50 kilowatts of electricity or with a storage capacity of no more than 100 kilowatt hours. The bill prohibits municipalities from adopting or enforcing ordinances, rules, or measures that regulate the installation or inspection of these systems. It also prevents municipalities from enforcing amendments to the National Electrical Code that would regulate such systems.
