You mean if you already have a existing license in another state?


Check this link out... then check out the license section...

8000 hours of OJT and 720 class hours. Once you complete that you only 6 months to take your E-2 test. Wate two years and then you can take the E-1 along with the busness law exam. If you have school, hours or a license from another state the site that stickboy gave is the place to check.

When you say "take a job" I assume you mean a job working for a licensed contractor?

In that case you need 1 of 3 things:
An apprentice card
Journeyman's license (E-2)
Contractor's license (E-1)

If you are planning on doing work as a contractor, then you need to have an E-1 license. A journeyman's won't cut it.

I spoke with the licensing bureau. today and they told me that with an E-1 you can work as a journeyman so why not take the E-1 and get the best of both worlds??? This one is a no brainer. Thanks for the link stickboy and peter d and Marissa see you soon!!! Can a cow ride the ferry??

Because, if you carry an E1 your suppose to have a business, this is my understanding of the situation, We go over this at are Continuing Education Class every year, but I can't seem to remember the exact wording...

Or Massachusetts.

Well yes I can run a business with one apprentice under my J-mans license.

If I want to expand I would have to have a masters license.....but I would also have to keep my j-mans license if I want to continue working with the tools.

Again you are correct about the CT law which says if you have an E-1 you must have a buseness. But it is seldom ever used, the state makes more money from us on the E-1 then an E-2 every October. As an CEU instructor its good to see someone listens to the classes.

one last question

one last question

What year nec is the test based on Iwould guess 2005???

 

[marissa2]

The test is on the 2005 NEC, and it looks like it will be for some time. They have listed the 2005 NEC in the 2008 buliding codes.

I have only taken one masters licence and found that it wasnt on anything that I readilly knew and had to look up a large portion of it. This is what I think the reason is to show you can find the correct answer in the code book. I guess about 50% was on basics though.
