NEC Code Test Prep 2020 Update & Free Download


Prepare for the electrical exam with this NEC code test prep in 2020

Welcome to the year 2020!  Well, for us in TX we are still in the year 2017. That means that if you are going to take your electrical exam, you will be testing out of the 2017 NEC code book.

TDLR is adopting the 2020 NEC code by September 1st.  As of September 1st, the PSI exam for the electrical license will be based on that code.

You can take your exam now until August under the 2017 code but after that, you will need to update to the new code.

If you have already been approved to take the exam, you should really get on the ball and start studying now.
