Electrical Exam Preparation Strategies for Apprentices


Electrical exam preparation strategies for the journeyman exam may seem a bit difficult but we make it our mission to make things easy for you.

👉Apprentice electricians who are preparing for their electrical exam will need 3 things.

1. PSI Exam Candidate Bulletin
2. Seminars, Practice Exam book & Computer Practice Exam
3. NEC code book

📌Electrical Exam Preparation Strategy # 1
The PSI exam candidate bulletin has a breakdown of the categories in the test but it isn’t very specific. You get an idea of what to study however you need more details. Get this bulletin by clicking the link at the end of this post.

📌Electrical Exam Preparation Strategy # 2
Seminars and practice exams are not only strongly suggested but should be considered a requirement for success. If you can attend a seminar or a class, do it.

📌Electrical Exam Preparation Strategy # 3
The NEC book is not only the approved book to take into the test but it is also what the test is based on. You may have read our previous blogs about this subject so we won’t go into too much detail. If you haven’t, follow the link below.

The third most important and helpful electrical exam preparation tip we can give you is: Learn to use this book!

Electrician Candidate Information Bulletin

Good Morning, Today we received a call from someone asking us the phone number to the PSI so they can change their appointment.  While we don't do the actual exams here, we are more than happy to help :)  We put together a cheat blog with the link to the ECIB , Table of Contents, FAQ's, and some shameless marketing for our seminars and books.  (I'd be a terrible business person if I didn't add a couple of sales links ;) Feel free to share this page with any Texas electrician preparing for their exam. This will come in handy. The Electrical Candidate Information Bulletin can be found here .  You may download and save it, print it or just read it online. Make sure to bookmark this link so you can refer to it during your studies.
