Kentucky recognizes approved electrical training programs and requires documentation showing participation and completion of the applicable instructional hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eQualifying electrical education can also reduce the practical-experience requirement. Kentucky's current application guidance recognizes qualifying electrical technology education from the Kentucky Community and Technical College System or another accredited college or university.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKentucky also recognizes qualifying teaching experience in electrical technology or a related field as a substitute for a portion of the required work experience. Applicable supervised military occupational specialty experience may also be used according to Kentucky law.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExperience submitted for an electrician license must be verifiable. Kentucky may require employer documentation or other approved records demonstrating the applicant's electrical work. The Department may request additional proof when submitted experience appears incomplete or insufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKentucky currently allows candidates to pass the electrician examination through an approved provider, including the accepted NASCLA option. Candidates using NASCLA must provide the required examination documentation to the Department when completing the licensing process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2023 National Electrical Code is currently Kentucky's adopted NEC edition.
