It is designed for electricians who perform maintenance, repair, and replacement of existing electrical equipment and conductors in nonresidential environments. The classification is different from unrestricted general electrical work because its authority is centered on maintaining existing systems rather than performing broad new electrical construction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Washington Nonresidential Maintenance Electrician examination combines National Electrical Code knowledge, electrical theory, and Washington electrical laws and rules. Candidates should be prepared for questions involving services, wiring and protection, grounding and bonding, overcurrent protection, wiring methods, electrical equipment, motors, HVAC equipment, generators, transformers, equipment over 600 volts, hazardous locations, special occupancies, emergency systems, communications systems, and general trade theory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWashington electrical examinations are \u003cstrong\u003eopen book\u003c\/strong\u003e.
