Aha, Approved Book for Electrical Exam

For the past 5 years we've had customers ask us if we have the NEC book highlighted for their particular state exam.  What's more some states like Illinois and Missouri don't take state exams, they take city or county exams.  So what we have introduced is the Highlighted NEC that is made to order.  You choose the license type and the state or local exams.  The book is highlighted with articles and tables that are pertinent to your exam.  You don't have to buy a one-book-fits all, you get to buy YOUR book.   Also as a bonus, you get our PermaTabs.  This set of tabs are bigger than others and easier to read.  They are exam room approved and will last longer.  You get to choose the tabs you want on your book and share the ones you don't need.
