Candidates should practice identifying the subject of a question before opening a book.

Approved reference materials may be used during testing in accordance with current examination rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOpen-book testing does not eliminate the need for technical preparation. Electrical references can contain hundreds or thousands of pages of information, and candidates who are unfamiliar with their books may lose valuable time searching. Highlighting and permanent indexing can support more efficient navigation by making major subjects and important provisions easier to identify.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNASCLA permits approved examination references to be highlighted, underlined, and permanently indexed. Temporary markers and removable notes are not permitted. Candidates should use their highlighted and tabbed books during regular study sessions so the organization becomes familiar before the examination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 National Electrical Code should receive extensive navigation practice. Candidates should become comfortable locating branch-circuit requirements, feeder and service provisions, conductor ampacity, grounding and bonding requirements, overcurrent protection, wiring methods, raceways, cables, motors, transformers, equipment, special occupancies, and special systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSafety references should also be incorporated into preparation. OSHA 29 CFR Part 1926 focuses on construction safety requirements, while NFPA 70E addresses electrical safety in the workplace. Understanding the purpose and organization of each reference can make it easier to determine where to look when a safety question appears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eElectrical theory and calculation references should be used actively rather than simply read. Practice solving voltage, current, resistance, power, motor, transformer, and circuit problems. For each question, determine what information is provided, identify the formula or Code requirement that applies, and work through the solution in a consistent sequence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTimed lookup exercises can help candidates take full advantage of the highlighted and tabbed format. Select a practice question, identify the subject, choose the appropriate reference, navigate to the relevant section, and locate the supporting information.

Each electrical contractor must designate one supervising electrician who is responsible for the activities performed under the contractor license.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe supervising electrician must hold an Idaho electrical credential appropriate for the scope of work being performed. A master electrician, journeyman electrician, residential electrician, or limited electrical installer may serve as a supervising electrician when the contractor's work falls within that person's licensed scope of practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIdaho rules also specify that the contractor's allowable scope of electrical work follows the scope of its licensed supervising employee. This makes the supervising electrician an important part of the contractor licensing structure and distinguishes the business license from the individual electrical credential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePassing the NASCLA examination does not automatically create an Idaho Master Electrician or Electrical Contractor license.
