The 1 Package: All-Inclusive Kansas Standard Master Electrician Contractor (ICC - KGD), Licensing & Business Setup Solution

The 1 Package: All-Inclusive Kansas Standard Master Electrician Contractor (ICC - KGD), Licensing & Business Setup Solution

If you want a true all-in-one path to get organized for the Kansas Standard Master Electrician Contractor (ICC - KGD) exam and set up your business the right way, The 1 Package is built for you. This is the all-inclusive option for contractors who don’t want to juggle separate vendors, scattered prep materials, and confusing business setup steps. You get your core exam references, structured prep support, and business-formation services that help you move from “studying” to “operating” with a clear plan.

Exam prep is only one part of becoming a contractor. Many candidates discover that the real friction happens between steps: organizing references, building a study routine that actually works for an open-book code exam, and then handling the business setup and compliance details that come with operating professionally. The 1 Package is designed to remove those gaps by bringing everything into one organized solution—so you can focus your time on learning the code, improving speed and accuracy, and building the foundation of your contracting business.

At the center of your preparation are the books you listed: the NFPA 70 - National Electrical Code (NEC), 2017 edition and Ugly’s Electrical References. The NEC is your primary resource for confirming code requirements with exact language. Ugly’s supports study as a fast companion reference for common electrical concepts and quick lookups while you build stronger code navigation habits.

Because this package includes business setup services, it’s a strong fit if your goal is bigger than passing a test—you want to be positioned to operate like a contractor with the right structure in place.

Total Cost: $1,995
Refundable Deposit: $150 (refundable if books are returned in similar condition within 1 year)
Total: $2,145 (All-Inclusive – No Hidden Fees!)

Exam Details

This package supports preparation for the Kansas Standard Master Electrician Contractor (ICC - KGD) exam using the reference books listed on this page. Official exam specifications—such as the number of questions, time limit, passing score, exam outline, and testing provider—were not provided, so they are not included here.

What The 1 Package is built to improve is what drives real results in a code-based exam environment:

• Faster navigation so you spend less time searching and more time answering
• Cleaner confirmation so your answers are supported by controlling NEC language
• Better pacing so one hard question doesn’t derail your exam
• More confidence through repeatable practice with the correct references

Open Book Test

This exam is an open book test (based on your instruction that exams are open book unless stated as closed book). Open-book exams reward candidates who prepare for performance—not just reading. The goal is to build a repeatable method: identify the topic, navigate quickly to the right NEC location, confirm the deciding detail (especially exceptions and conditions), and move forward with steady momentum.

A practical open-book routine to train during prep:

1. Label the topic first. Before opening the NEC, identify what the question is truly testing in plain language.
2. Navigate intentionally. Go to the most likely NEC area instead of searching randomly.
3. Confirm precisely. Read carefully for exceptions, definitions, and “when/where required” language.
4. Answer and move on. Confirm the deciding detail, protect your pace, and keep momentum.

Licensing Steps

Specific Kansas licensing steps, eligibility requirements, application procedures, fees, or renewal rules were not provided, so they are not listed here. However, most contractor candidates benefit from an organized path that combines exam readiness with business setup:

1. Prepare with the correct references. Build familiarity with the NEC and practice confirming answers efficiently.
2. Follow a structured study plan. Use repeatable drills and scenario practice to improve navigation and pacing.
3. Use Application Service support. Keep your documentation and process organized as you move forward.
4. Form your business entity. Establish an LLC or Corporation so you are legally structured to operate.
5. File for your EIN. Get your EIN so your business is ready for banking, tax management, and hiring needs.
6. Use compliance guidance. Understand ongoing compliance expectations so your business is positioned for long-term success.

State Requirements

State-specific requirements for the Kansas Standard Master Electrician Contractor credential were not provided, so this section focuses on what you can control: preparing with the correct reference set, using a structured study plan, and setting up your business foundation with professional support.

Reference Books

• NFPA 70 - National Electrical Code (NEC), 2017 edition
  Included Book: Your primary code reference for confirming electrical installation requirements with exact language, including conditions, exceptions, and defined terms that determine correct answers.
• Ugly's Electrical References
  Included Book: A practical companion reference that supports quick review of common electrical concepts and helps reinforce key ideas while you build faster NEC navigation habits.

Test Information and Study Materials

The most effective prep for a code-based exam is performance-based practice. Reading helps you become familiar with layout and terminology, but readiness improves fastest when you repeatedly train the same actions you’ll use under time pressure: identify the topic, navigate efficiently, confirm the controlling language, and keep moving.

1) Train topic recognition before you touch the book
A surprising amount of time is lost before candidates even begin looking things up. During practice, pause and name the issue in plain language before opening the NEC. This reduces hesitation and helps you start in the best place.

2) Build “memory of location” through repeated lookups
Open-book exams reward familiarity. You don’t need to memorize every page, but you do need to become comfortable navigating the NEC’s structure. Repetition is the fastest path: locate, confirm, apply—then repeat.

3) Confirm the deciding detail (not everything about the topic)
Many candidates lose time by reading too much. A better method is confirm-and-move: narrow down the likely answer direction, then confirm the one detail that decides the outcome. Train your eyes to look for:

• Exceptions that modify the general rule
• Conditions that limit applicability (“when,” “where,” “if”)
• Definitions that change what the scenario actually means
• Requirement language that signals what must be done

4) Use pacing as part of your preparation
Open book does not mean unlimited time. During timed practice, confirm what you can efficiently, select the best supported answer, and move on. If time allows, return later. This protects momentum and reduces stress.

5) Use Ugly’s to reinforce concepts during study
Ugly’s Electrical References is useful as a study companion for quick reinforcement of core concepts. When an answer depends on exact wording or an exception, rely on the NEC for final confirmation.

6) Use your 1 year of course access to stay consistent
With 1 year of course access, you can build a steady rhythm instead of cramming. Consistency supports stronger retention and faster navigation because you’re repeating the same exam-day actions again and again.
