These are real pages from the book. The table of contents is the full one: 10 parts and 72 topics.

It's Not That You Can't Remember. It's That Nobody Put It in Order for You.

You've read the wire size section three times. You close the book...

...and you can't remember why a bigger number means a smaller wire, or where AWG stops and kcmil starts. It was just lines of text.

From 14 AWG to 250 kcmil: 4/0 = 211,600 cmil, 12 AWG = 6,530 cmil (Chapter 9, Table 8).

Here wire sizes are one page, every conductor drawn side by side from 14 AWG up to 250 kcmil, each one with its area in circular mils from Chapter 9, Table 8.

And on the pages next to it every topic has its own: insulation letters, conductor colors, Table 310.16, ambient corrections and conduit fill.

First you understand why it works that way. Then the sizes stick on their own.

SEE THE DIFFERENCE

Stop memorizing Code rules you can't picture:

THIS
  • Pages and pages of dense text
  • Code rules without a single drawing
  • On the exam, you don't know where to start
When calculating the volume of a box, an allowance is added for every conductor that comes in from outside and is spliced or terminated inside, a single allowance covers up to four equipment grounding conductors with a quarter allowance for each one beyond four, a double allowance applies to each yoke or strap carrying a device and is based on the largest conductor connected to it, and conductors that start and end inside the box are not counted, with every allowance taken from the volume listed for that conductor size.
FOR THIS
  • Every rule drawn
  • One topic per page, with the rules in boxes
  • Every rule with its section number, so you know where to look

  1. Final review: numbers to know

What If Every Topic Fit on a Single Page?

Picture this:

Instead of rereading half a page on box fill without being able to see it...

...you open the page and find a box with every conductor counted: each wire counts 1, up to four grounds count 1 (each extra one adds 1/4), the device yoke counts 2 and pigtails count 0.

Grounding = system to earth (250.4(A)(1)). Bonding = metal to metal. The earth never clears a fault (250.4(A)(5)).

And Ohm's law, grounding and bonding, conduit fill, the dwelling load calculation and lockout/tagout turn into drawings and tables you can read at a glance.

You stop repeating and start understanding.

That's exactly what Electrician Exam Made Visual does. It's not “just another study guide.” It's 10 parts and 72 illustrated topics, and at the end 30 practice questions with explained answers and a final review of the numbers to know. Because what your brain sees in order, it remembers.

Because what your brain sees organized, it remembers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get it?

After your purchase you get an email with Electrician Exam Made Visual as a high-resolution PDF, to read on your phone or print. The two bonus books, The Code Book Tab Guide and Electrician Practice Exam, also come as PDFs by email. No physical tabs are included: check your testing provider's rules on tabs and highlighting before you mark your Code book.

Is it a monthly or a one-time payment?

One-time payment of $27. No installments, no subscription.

Who is it for?

For apprentices on the job, for anyone preparing for a journeyman electrician exam, and for electricians who already wire houses and want the Code to finally make sense. It starts at Ohm's law, but it goes on to Table 310.16 corrections, sizing the GEC and the EGC, voltage drop and a dwelling load calculation with a worked service. Check the table of contents above to see every topic.

Does it work for my state's exam and my NEC edition?

It's built on the 2023 edition of NFPA 70, the National Electrical Code, plus NFPA 70E (2024 edition) for electrical safety and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 for lockout/tagout. Every rule comes with its section or table number, so you can check it in your own Code book. States adopt different editions (2020, 2023 or 2026), and some add local amendments. If your exam uses another edition, look up each section number in the Code book your exam allows: some numbers and rules changed between editions. Your testing provider's candidate bulletin tells you which edition applies.

Is this official material?

No. It's an independent study book, not published by or affiliated with NFPA, any testing company or any state licensing board. It doesn't come with a certificate and doesn't count as classroom or continuing education hours. It doesn't reproduce the Code: it tells you which article to go to and how to read it.

Does it replace my classes or my Code book?

No. It doesn't replace your apprenticeship, your classroom hours, your supervised work or your Code book. You study with it next to the Code, so on exam day you already know where to look. Most open-book exams only allow specific references: check your candidate bulletin before you take anything printed in.

Are the practice questions the ones on the exam?

No. The 30 questions in the book and the mock exam in the bonus are written for this book. They're not official questions from any exam: they're there to train you.

Can I print it?

Yes. It's a high-resolution PDF: print the whole book or just the pages you want to keep in the truck.

What if I don't like it?

30-day guarantee: tell us what didn't work and we'll refund 100%.

One Last Thing Before You Decide...

You don't have to reread the same page hoping this time it sticks.

You don't have to memorize Code rules you can't picture.

And you definitely don't have to walk into the exam not knowing where to start.

There's an easier way. And it's one click away. Now it's your turn.
