Exam Details

The Nevada Low Voltage Contractor (C-2D) examination evaluates technical knowledge related to low voltage electrical systems and the installation, alteration, and repair of limited-energy and communications systems.

Candidates should prepare for subjects involving grounding and bonding, conductors, communications wiring, low voltage equipment, raceways, boxes, power supplies, computer networking, sound systems, video systems, controls, and other electrical-code topics relevant to the C-2D classification.

The NFPA 70 - National Electrical Code, 2017 edition supports code-based preparation. Candidates should become familiar with the organization of the NEC, including the index, definitions, article structure, tables, exceptions, and cross-references. Efficient code navigation can be especially useful during an open-book trade examination.

Telecommunications Wiring supports broader preparation involving communications cabling, pathways, system layouts, connections, terminations, and installation principles. Since this reference is not allowed inside the exam room, it should be used to build knowledge that candidates can recall during testing.

The Construction Business and Law Manual for Nevada supports preparation for business and law topics associated with contractor licensing. Candidates can use the highlighted and tabbed format to organize study of Nevada contractor responsibilities, business practices, and licensing-related material.

Because the package includes both trade and business materials, candidates can build a preparation schedule that alternates between technical C-2D subjects and contractor business and law review.

Open Book Test

The Nevada Low Voltage Contractor (C-2D) trade examination is an open-book test using the approved electrical code reference included with this package.

The trade reference included for exam-room use is:

• NFPA 70 - National Electrical Code, 2017 edition

The following trade study reference is included in the rental package but is not allowed inside the examination room:

• Telecommunications Wiring, Clyde Herrick, 2001, 3rd Edition

The highlighted and tabbed NEC is intended to help candidates practice organized code navigation before the examination. Tabs can make it easier to return to major code areas, while highlighting can help selected material stand out during repeated review.

Candidates should not rely on the NEC to solve every question from scratch. A stronger approach is to understand the trade concept first, identify the electrical subject involved, and then use the code to confirm the applicable requirement.

For example, a grounding question should first be identified as an issue involving bonding, equipment grounding, grounding electrodes, communications grounding, or another related concept. That makes it easier to choose an effective index term and move toward the correct NEC article.

Telecommunications Wiring should be studied differently because it is not available during the exam. Review a highlighted section, close the book, and practice explaining the concept or answering related questions without reference access.

Licensing Steps

The Nevada C-2D trade examination is one part of the contractor licensing process. Candidates must complete the applicable licensing requirements in addition to preparing for the technical examination.

1. Confirm the C-2D classification. Make sure the low voltage work the business intends to perform falls within Nevada's Low Voltage Systems classification.
2. Identify the qualifying individual. The contractor license application must designate the person responsible for providing the applicable trade qualification.
3. Prepare qualifying experience documentation. Organize applicable work history involving low voltage wiring, communications systems, networking, sound, video, controls, fiber optics, or related electrical work.
4. Complete the Nevada contractor license application. Submit the required business, qualifying individual, experience, financial, and supporting information.
5. Submit the application for review. Examination eligibility is established through the contractor licensing process.
6. Receive examination authorization. Once eligible, the qualifying individual can schedule the applicable examinations.
7. Prepare for the C-2D trade exam. Study low voltage systems, communications wiring, grounding and bonding, conductors, raceways, equipment, power supplies, and NEC requirements.
8. Prepare for contractor business and law. Use the included Construction Business and Law Manual for Nevada and course materials to organize this portion of study.
9. Complete applicable examinations. Satisfy the examination requirements associated with the contractor license application.
10. Complete remaining licensing requirements. Finish the other applicable requirements before the Nevada contractor license is issued.

State Requirements

Nevada identifies C-2D Low Voltage Systems as a specialty area within electrical contracting. The classification covers the installation, alteration, and repair of systems using fiber optics or operating at no more than 91 volts.

The scope includes telephone systems, sound systems, cable television systems, closed-circuit video systems, satellite dish antennas, instrumentation and temperature controls, computer networking systems, and landscape lighting.

Because the classification covers several different technologies, candidates should prepare broadly. A network cabling installation may use different equipment from a sound system, while temperature controls and landscape lighting may involve another set of low voltage components.

Common principles connect these systems. Proper cable routing, grounding and bonding, equipment placement, conductor protection, pathways, terminations, power supplies, and code compliance can affect many types of low voltage installations.

The Nevada contractor licensing process also includes requirements beyond the C-2D trade examination. Applicants must complete the applicable application, qualification, examination, financial, and other licensing requirements before a contractor license is issued.

Test Information and Study Materials

A strong Nevada C-2D preparation plan should combine highlighted code navigation, telecommunications study, low voltage trade review, contractor business and law preparation, and practice-oriented course work.

Grounding and Bonding should receive dedicated NEC study. Practice locating grounding terminology, bonding provisions, equipment grounding requirements, grounding conductors, and related code sections.

Conductors and Cables should be reviewed for type, routing, support, physical protection, termination, identification, and installation conditions. Candidates should understand that different systems may use different cable types while still requiring proper installation and protection.

Telephone and Communications Systems should include pathways, cabling, equipment, grounding, terminations, and system organization. The Telecommunications Wiring reference can help reinforce these concepts during study.

Computer Networking Systems should be reviewed for structured cabling, pathways, cable routing, equipment interfaces, and the physical installation practices involved in network infrastructure.

Sound Systems can involve speakers, amplifiers, control equipment, wiring, power supplies, and signal distribution. Candidates should understand how these components connect and how the system is installed.

Cable Television and Closed-Circuit Video Systems should be studied for cabling, equipment, signal transmission, grounding, pathways, power requirements, and related installation concepts.

Instrumentation and Temperature Controls can involve sensors, controllers, low voltage wiring, control equipment, and power supplies. Candidates should understand how these components work together within a control system.

Landscape Lighting is included within Nevada's C-2D scope. Preparation should include low voltage lighting wiring, equipment, power supplies, routing, and system installation principles.

Raceways and Boxes should be practiced through NEC navigation. Candidates should understand how physical protection, wiring methods, pathways, enclosures, and installation conditions can affect low voltage work.

Power Supplies and Transformers should be reviewed for their role in providing appropriate voltage to low voltage equipment. Candidates should understand basic voltage relationships and how these devices connect to the systems they serve.

The highlighted and tabbed NEC can support repeated code-navigation practice. When a practice question is missed, return to the applicable highlighted section and review the surrounding requirements instead of memorizing only the answer.

Tabs can help make this process faster by creating familiar navigation points. Repeated use of the same sections during study can help candidates become more comfortable with the organization of the NEC.

Telecommunications Wiring should be used for deeper study of communications-specific concepts. After reviewing a highlighted section, close the book and practice recalling the material without reference access because this book cannot be used during the trade examination.

The included 6 months of course access gives candidates time to work through these subjects in a more structured manner. Course study can be combined with book review, practice questions, code navigation, and business and law preparation.

The Construction Business and Law Manual for Nevada should be incorporated into the weekly study schedule rather than left until the end. Alternating trade review with business and law preparation can help create a more balanced approach to the contractor licensing process.

Practice questions should be used to identify weak areas. If grounding questions take too long, increase NEC navigation practice. If communications questions are difficult, return to Telecommunications Wiring. If business and law topics need more attention, revisit the corresponding sections in the Nevada business manual and course materials.

Mixed practice can be useful because real low voltage installations combine several subjects. A communications project may involve cabling, grounding, raceways, equipment, power supplies, and code requirements at the same time.
