Alaska electrician exam prep
Alaska splits electrical licensing in two. The Department of Labor and Workforce Development’s Mechanical Inspection section issues certificates of fitness to individual electricians and writes and gives the journeyman exam itself. The Department of Commerce licenses electrical administrators, the qualifiers electrical contractors need, through PSI exams. Both are open book on the 2020 NEC with 70% to pass.
