| Electrical Repair For NovicesA Quick Guide to Passing the Master Electrician Exam
It’s tough being an electrician. It’s not as simple as fixing broken appliances and connecting wires. Electricians have to follow a Code and pass several tests in order to get a license. They have to perform competent work to guarantee the public’s safety and health. Licenses are there to help guard the public by preventing untrained and inexperienced people from performing the job.
An electrician’s license is a legal and formal document which has to be renewed regularly. Inappropriate use of the license can set off automatic termination of the license. The government can suspend or revoke licenses of electricians who conduct illegal or immoral jobs. Requirements have to be met before electricians are granted a license. Usually, testing procedures and requirements vary with each state.
*News* Typically, work experience in accordance with the law is required before taking a test. Specific number of hours experience working under a master electrician is mandatory. The superior whom you are working with should then verify for your qualifications by signing an affidavit. After the state licensing board validates your credentials, the exam is then scheduled for you to take.
The exam is tough, especially if you don’t get ready for it. You will be tested on the NEC or National Electrical Code, any local electric construction codes and your knowledge of electrical theory. Written exams are open-book so you will be permitted to bring your copy of the most recent NEC and maybe other books such as the NEC Handbook, American Electrician’s Handbook, Ferm’s Fast Finder and others.
Bring whatever items are permitted. If you are permitted to bring a set of index tabs attached to your Code book in your state, bring one. Using it will save you a lot of precious time. You may also be allowed to bring pencils, scratch paper, calculator, and other test items. However, highly programmed electronic calculators that can calculate problems based on the NEC are typically not allowed. Using simple calculators would be fine.
*Update* Be prepared to do a lot of studying. In a year, study time of 15 hours a week is recommended. If you already have a journeyman’s license, then perform your work everything up to Code. For example, check out Article 358 and follow all Code requirements when running EMT. You will easily remember the answers to questions if you have already encountered and practiced it in your work.
Don’t attempt to memorize the Code. Most people can’t memorize it anyway and it’s unnecessary. All you have to do is learn the structure of the Code so that when you encounter questions, you can look up the answers immediately, because you know where to find them (what article, what page, etc.). It helps to memorize chapter headings and be proficient in using the Table of Contents and Index. By doing so, you can save time for the tougher questions.
It is recommended that you also memorize the internal structures of some articles. Such articles include 240 Overcurrent Protection, 250 Grounding and Bonding, and 430 Motors, Motor Circuits and Controllers. If you’re thoroughly familiarized with the Code structure, you will be able to pinpoint the right page that contains the answers to questions immediately. With this help, you can surely pass the electrician exam.
