What to Expect on the New Hampshire Electrician Exam

New Hampshire has a statewide journeyman electrician license through the New Hampshire Electricians' Licensing Board. The exam is administered by Prometric: 110 questions, 270 minutes (4.5 hours), 70% passing score, open book with NEC 2023 permitted, and an $80 exam fee. New Hampshire's exam has 110 questions, which is more than most state journeyman exams. The larger question pool covers a broader range of NEC topics, which means preparation across all major code articles is particularly important. New Hampshire requires 8,000 hours of on-the-job training under a licensed master electrician before applying for the journeyman license. New Hampshire also licenses Master Electricians through the Electricians' Licensing Board. The exam covers all major NEC 2023 articles, with particular emphasis on Articles 210 (branch circuits), 220 (load calculations), 250 (grounding and bonding), 300 (wiring methods), 310 (conductors), and 430 (motors). Manchester, Nashua, Concord, and Portsmouth are the largest markets. New Hampshire's proximity to the Boston metro creates strong cross-border activity and demand for licensed electricians in the southern tier. The practice questions below are aligned to NEC 2023 and the New Hampshire Prometric exam format.
