What to Expect on the Vermont Electrician Exam

Vermont has a statewide journeyman electrician license through the Department of Public Safety, Division of Fire Safety. The exam is administered by Prometric: 90 questions, 240 minutes (4 hours), 70% passing score, open book with NEC 2023 permitted, and exam fees ranging from $65 to $100 depending on license type. Vermont requires 8,000 hours of on-the-job training under a licensed master electrician before applying for the journeyman license. Vermont uses the Vermont Fire and Building Safety Code, which adopts the NEC with Vermont-specific amendments. The Division of Fire Safety processes all applications and verifies work experience documentation before candidates can schedule with Prometric. Vermont also licenses Master Electricians and Electrical Contractors through the same Division. The exam covers all major NEC 2023 topics including Articles 210, 220, 250, 310, and 430. Burlington, South Burlington, Rutland, Barre, and Montpelier are the largest markets. Vermont's aging housing stock and energy efficiency programs create steady demand for licensed electricians. The practice questions below are aligned to NEC 2023 and the Vermont Division of Fire Safety Prometric exam format.
