In addition to the trade-specific examination, you are required to pass the Connecticut Business & Law Exam offered by PSI.
The books listed below are NOT allowed at the exam location
We recommend that you purchase one of the reference books above to study for your exam. Each book is a comprehensive subject index to the NEC. They provide an even faster way to look up answers in the code and are far more detailed than the index at the end of the code book.
Ugly's References contain practical applications of the NEC such as Ohm‘s Law, series/parallel circuits, voltage drop, load calculations, motor phases, impediance, inductance and math formulas you are expected to know. The "Basic Knowledge" covered in the exam is assumed and sometimes not listed as a subject. This book also covers subjects listed as "Calculations and Theory".
NOTE: Regarding the versions of Ugly's Reference shown in the PSI bulletin: you should always choose a version that agrees with the NEC that you are using (as shown above). Older verions of Ugly's are often overpriced because they are out-of-print. This title can usually be found at a home improvement store like Lowe's or Home Depot in the same area where volt meters are found.
Sample questions are based on the PSI publication titled “29 CFR PART 1926 Selections, as of June 2013” (highlighted in green above).
This file contains approx. 800 sample questions.
REMINDER: PSI uses this book for many exams they offer. Not all sections of this code will apply to your exam.
We also include a table showing the relationship between our questions and OSHA code sections. Corrections to the original PSI publication are noted. The index/table is available for veiwing before you purchnse from the button above.
