What to Expect on the Alaska Electrician Exam

Alaska has a statewide journeyman electrician license through the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing (DCCED). The exam is administered by PSI: 100 questions, 240 minutes (4 hours), 70% passing score, open book with NEC 2023 permitted, and a $50 exam fee. Alaska requires 8,000 hours of apprenticeship or on-the-job training under a licensed journeyman or master electrician. The $50 PSI exam fee is one of the lowest in the country. Alaska also offers a Residential Electrician endorsement for candidates who work exclusively in residential construction. The NEC 2023 applies statewide, though Alaska has adopted some state-specific amendments for cold-weather construction conditions. The most frequently tested articles include Article 220 (load calculations), Article 250 (grounding), Article 310 (conductors), and Article 430 (motors). Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Juneau are the primary markets. Alaska's oil and gas, military, and construction industries generate strong demand for licensed electricians year-round. The practice questions below are aligned to NEC 2023 and the Alaska PSI exam format.

Tips for the Alaska PSI Exam

  • The Alaska exam is open book, so tab your NEC for Articles 110, 210, 220, 230, 240, 250, 300, 310, and 430.
  • You won't have time to look up every answer. Know the major numbers cold, and use the book for edge cases.
  • PSI delivers the exam at its own network of PSI test centers. Arrive 30 minutes before your appointment with your ID.
  • PSI questions often test the specific NEC article number, not just the concept. Knowing where a rule lives matters.
  • Budget your time: spend no more than 90 seconds per question on the first pass, then return to flagged items.
