National Electrical Code Course
45 Hour NEC Course
THIS IS THE COURSE YOU NEED TAKE IF YOU ARE PREPARING TO TAKE ANY MAINE OR NEW HAMPSHIRE STATE EXAM and is based on the current code cycle.
This course is an in-depth look at chapters 1-4 of the National Electrical Code, and an overview of chapters 5-8. These chapters lay the foundation for all installations.
Students benefit greatly from access to a video series to aid them as they study on their own.
Additional Books/Materials Required:
- Student must provide his or her own current version of the National Electrical Code Book.
- A set of at least 6 different colored chisel-tipped highlighters.
- A set of the NEC handbook index tabs. These can be purchased directly from the NFPA website.
(NOTE: DO NOT put the tabs in the code book until directed to do so in the course. We will provide some tips and tricks on best practices at the beginning of the course.)
After payment (within one business day, but often the same day), you will be sent a link and username via email to to access the course so that you can begin right away.
In addition to the NEC, the state of Maine is now including a few questions that are pulled from these resources…most always questions pertaining to licensure, permits, and common code violations. Students would do well to be familiar with them:
