Twenty questions must be completed within one hour, so candidates have an average of approximately three minutes per question. That time includes reading the question, identifying the subject, locating information, interpreting the requirement, and selecting an answer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe two authorized references for this examination are the Guide to FEMP Designated Parking Lot Lighting and the National Electrical Code, 2023. Candidate-printed versions of the FEMP guide are permitted at the testing site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReference materials may be prepared with highlighting, underlining in pen, and permanent tabs. These methods can help candidates identify high-use sections and navigate more efficiently during the examination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHandwritten notes are not permitted in the references. Moveable tabs, removable flags, and Post-it notes are also prohibited. Photocopied documents may not be added to a reference book, and photocopied versions of a reference book are not allowed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe testing rules specifically permit candidate-printed copies of the FEMP parking lot lighting guide. Candidates should keep the printed guide organized and ensure that it meets the testing provider’s current requirements before test day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTest-preparation study guides and practice examinations are not approved examination-room references.

Reference preparation must be completed before entering the testing session.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA productive open-book strategy begins with identifying the question category. A question about luminaires, outside branch circuits, feeders, grounding, wiring, transformers, or installation requirements will generally lead to the NEC.
