The National Electrical Code 2023 paperback with tabs is included to support current-code study and reference navigation. Connecticut’s E-2 exam allows the National Electrical Code or National Electrical Code Handbook in the 2020 or 2023 edition, and this package is built around the 2023 NEC. Tabs help students move through the NEC more efficiently during preparation, especially when reviewing major articles, tables, and frequently used sections.

The 2023 Journeyman Electrician Flash Cards give students another way to reinforce important concepts. Flash cards are useful for quick review, spaced repetition, terminology practice, and strengthening recall between longer study sessions. They can help candidates stay engaged while reviewing definitions, formulas, code concepts, safety topics, and common electrical exam themes.

This Connecticut journeyman electrician Super Combo is useful for apprentices, working electricians, E-2 exam candidates, and electrical professionals who want a complete study set based on the 2023 NEC. By combining a Connecticut-focused study guide, calculation review, a tabbed NEC paperback, and flash cards, students can build a stronger preparation routine before taking the Connecticut E-2 Unlimited Electrical Journeyperson examination.

Exam Details

The Connecticut E-2 Unlimited Electrical Journeyperson examination is administered through PSI for the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection. The E-2 license is Connecticut’s unlimited electrical journeyperson license classification. The license holder may perform electrical work as defined by Connecticut law, but only while employed by a properly licensed contractor.

The Connecticut E-2 Unlimited Electrical Journeyperson exam contains 80 questions, requires a minimum passing score of 70%, and allows 3.5 hours of testing time. The exam is computer-based and includes questions based on approved references, trade knowledge, and general industry practices.

The E-2 content outline includes General Electrical Knowledge, 7 items; Service, Feeders, and Branch Circuits, 7 items; Grounding and Bonding, 6 items; Conductors and Cables, 7 items; Raceways and Boxes, 8 items; Special Occupancies and Equipment, 5 items; Electrical Power, 4 items; Motors, 5 items; Low Voltage, 2 items; Lighting, 3 items; Illuminated Signs, 2 items; Fire Detection and Alarm Systems, 5 items; Safety Information, 5 items; Overcurrent Protection, 6 items; High Voltage, 2 items; and Photovoltaics, 6 items.

Because the exam covers a broad range of electrical content, candidates should prepare across the full outline. Raceways and boxes, services, feeders, branch circuits, conductors, grounding and bonding, overcurrent protection, fire alarm topics, and photovoltaic subjects all deserve attention. Smaller categories can still affect the final score, especially when a candidate is close to the passing threshold.

This Super Combo supports that study plan by pairing Connecticut E-2 subject review with calculation practice, flash card reinforcement, and NEC navigation. Students can use the study guide to organize their review, the calculations guide to strengthen math skills, the tabbed NEC paperback to practice finding code information efficiently, and the flash cards to reinforce key concepts between longer study sessions.

Open Book Test

The Connecticut E-2 Unlimited Electrical Journeyperson exam is an open book test. Candidates are responsible for bringing their own approved references to the examination center. The exam allows a silent, nonprinting, non-programmable calculator.

Approved references for the Connecticut E-2 exam include the National Electrical Code or National Electrical Code Handbook, 2020 or 2023 edition; Code of Federal Regulations 29 CFR Part 1926 or PSI’s selections; Ugly’s Electrical References, 2020 or 2023; NFPA 72, National Fire Alarm Code, 2013; Photovoltaic Systems, 3rd edition, by James Dunlap; Convert Your Home to Solar Energy by Everett M. Barber Jr. and Joseph R. Provey; and the National Electrical Safety Code, 2012 edition.

Reference materials may be highlighted, underlined, annotated, and indexed before the exam. References may be tabbed or indexed with permanent tabs only. Temporary tabs, such as Post-it notes, are not allowed and must be removed before the exam begins. Candidates may not write in reference materials during the examination, and additional loose or attached papers are not permitted with approved references.

Open book testing gives candidates access to approved references, but it does not remove the need for preparation. A student who has not practiced reference navigation can lose valuable time searching through unrelated sections. Strong preparation means knowing how the NEC is organized, how definitions are used, how tables and notes work, and how to recognize the article or rule being tested.

The 2023 NEC paperback with tabs in this Super Combo helps students practice current-code navigation throughout preparation. Students should use it to become comfortable moving through chapters, articles, definitions, tables, exceptions, and index entries. That habit supports faster and more accurate open book testing.

Licensing Steps

Connecticut electrical licensing is handled through the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection. Candidates pursuing the E-2 Unlimited Electrical Journeyperson license must qualify through the required classroom hours and on-the-job training hours for the license type, or through an equivalent experience and training pathway accepted by the Department.

For the E-2 license, Connecticut requires proof of 720 classroom hours and 8,000 hours of on-the-job training. The classroom hours must be equivalent to the required curriculum for the electrical license type. On-the-job training and work experience do not replace the classroom-hour requirement.

Applicants using the equivalent experience and training pathway may need to submit transcripts, degrees, diplomas, notarized employer letters, and apprenticeship completion documentation when applicable. Employer letters must include employment dates and a detailed description of work experience. Payroll records, W-2 forms, and tax returns are not accepted in place of the required notarized letters.

After the Department reviews and approves the application for examination, the candidate follows PSI’s scheduling instructions. Candidates should register for the correct exam classification, bring required identification, follow testing center procedures, and comply with all reference-book and calculator rules.

After passing the E-2 examination, the candidate continues the remaining licensing steps through the Department of Consumer Protection. Passing the exam is an important part of the process, but final license issuance still depends on satisfying Connecticut’s application, documentation, and licensing requirements.

State Requirements

Connecticut’s E-2 Unlimited Electrical Journeyperson license allows the license holder to perform electrical work as defined by state law, including the installation, erection, maintenance, alteration, or repair of electrical wires, cables, conduits, busways, raceways, supports, conductors, appliances, apparatus, fixtures, and equipment that generate, transform, transmit, or use electrical energy for light, heat, power, or other purposes. The E-2 license holder may perform this work only while employed by a properly licensed contractor.

To qualify for the E-2 license examination, Connecticut requires completion of a registered apprenticeship program or at least four years of equivalent experience and training. The Department’s electrical journeyperson application information identifies 8,000 on-the-job training hours and 720 classroom hours for the E-2 license.

Connecticut also issues other electrical license classifications, including contractor and limited journeyperson categories. Candidates should apply for the correct license classification based on the work they plan to perform. This product is focused on journeyman electrician exam preparation for the E-2 Unlimited Electrical Journeyperson pathway.

Test Information and Study Materials

The Connecticut E-2 exam outline gives candidates a practical roadmap for studying. General Electrical Knowledge includes foundational concepts, terminology, and trade principles. Service, Feeders, and Branch Circuits require review of service equipment, feeder rules, branch-circuit requirements, conductor sizing, load relationships, and related NEC organization.

Grounding and Bonding deserves steady review because it is tied directly to electrical safety and code compliance. Students should understand grounding electrode systems, bonding requirements, equipment grounding conductors, grounded conductors, service bonding, and the difference between grounding and bonding functions.

Conductors and Cables require review of conductor types, ampacity, insulation, temperature limitations, adjustment and correction concepts, cable rules, and related installation requirements. Raceways and Boxes require knowledge of raceway types, supports, fill, box sizing, fittings, cabinets, panelboards, and installation limitations.

Special Occupancies and Equipment can include installations with rules that differ from general wiring methods. Electrical Power, Motors, Lighting, Illuminated Signs, High Voltage, Fire Detection and Alarm Systems, and Photovoltaics should also be included in the study plan because the E-2 examination includes questions across these subjects.

The Electrician Calculations Study Guide helps students practice the math side of preparation. Calculation topics may include Ohm’s law, power formulas, conductor sizing, load calculations, service and feeder calculations, box fill, conduit fill, motor calculations, transformer calculations, and table-based NEC problem solving. Repeated calculation practice helps candidates improve accuracy, pacing, and confidence before working under timed testing conditions.

The Journeyman Electrician Flash Cards can be used between longer study sessions to reinforce recall. Students can review flash cards during short breaks, before practice sessions, or after completing a study chapter. Flash cards are especially useful for definitions, formulas, code concepts, common electrical terms, safety rules, and quick review of topics that require repetition.

The tabbed 2023 NEC paperback should be used throughout preparation. Students should practice locating definitions, moving through articles, reading tables carefully, following notes and exceptions, and using the index. Open book testing works best when candidates already know how to use the reference before they arrive at the test center.
