In addition to the trade-specific examination, you are required to pass the Contractor Management Survey Exam offered by PSI.
QUESTION: "What is the difference between the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the Handbook version?". As far as the actual NEC code quoted in the text... it's the same.
The NEC Handbook has additional diagrams, graphics and explainations inserted into the text (adding more pages and raising the price). It was designed for engineers and inspectors. The typical exam candidate should not use it as a prefered reference.
Sample questions are based on the NEC, OSHA and the 2014 version of Ugly's Electrical Reference.
This package contains approx. 1,860 sample questions.
The files include a free PDF copy of the 2005 NEC (only viewable on your computer or a tablet).
