What's on the Missouri Residential Master Electrician Exam?
Prov's Missouri Residential Master Electrician exam is 60 questions in 3 hours, open book, and you need 70%. The NEC is the only reference, in the edition of your version (2017, 2020 or 2023); the counts below are Prov's for the 2023 version.
The outline
| Area | Questions |
|---|---|

How to study
- Weight your time like the outline. The largest areas above are where most of your points come from.
- Know your edition. If the Board assigns you a 2017 or 2020 version, study from that book; several load-calculation tables moved between editions.
- Practice lookups. With the NEC as the only book allowed, speed in finding a section is the skill the exam rewards.
Our Missouri Residential Master Electrician practice test draws from these areas in the same proportions, on the 2023 NEC. For test-day logistics, see exam day.
