| What's an electrical exam like? For most people, it's very stressful. It doesn't have to be stressful at all, though.

First of all, if you prepare for your exam properly you can forget about the stress. You'll have confidence going in, and you'll find the exam answers just seem to flow from your head.
The exams consist of multiple parts.
You can expect one or more verbal parts, in which you answer True/False questions and multiple choice questions. These are intended to test your knowledge of electrical theory and the NEC, which, of course, you will know cold because you will have bought this library to prepare. Most people pass the verbal exams, but some do not. Many people think that being an electrical engineer or having worked in the field for 20 years is sufficient preparation. It's not. If that's all you have, you will fail. Period.
For the verbal parts, you need to know Article 100, Chapter 1, and Chapter 2 very well. This NEC Exam Library will prepare you for this. You'll also need to know things from Chapters 3 and 4, and this NEC Exam Library will prepare you for that as well.
You can expect one or more calculations tests. These will cover specific areas of NEC application. For these, you need to know how to size raceway and conductors. You need to be able to size overcurrent protection devices. You'll need to be able to size quite a few things. You'll have to be able to calculate these in a variety of ways.
This NEC Exam Library will prepare you for these exam calculations. It will prepare you by explaining how to calculate, then supplying practice problems. You'll understand the why, not just the how, and that will eliminate "formula confusion."
For most people, the exams are stressful during the exam because they are sweating out the answers. Worse, they are under stress after the exam because they have to go back to work and face everyone after having failed it. Wouldn't you rather return to work saying you passed the exam?
