2008 Electrician's Exam Preparation book by Mike Holt
I have used the last four editions of Mike Holt's Electrical Exam Preparation book. This is the 2008 version, which has been updated to coincide with the 2008 National Electrical Code. Mike Holt does a great job of keeping his books current and up to date. You can count on this book to deliver the information that you will need to take any level of licensing exam based on the National Electrical Code (NEC).
This book begins with a review of electrician's math and electrical theory and lays the groundwork to understand the NEC requirements for our electrical installations. A review of this nature is very essential before we begin the study of more in-depth calculations in the NEC. Throughout this book, code questions are intermingled with examples and illustrations. More than 2400 problems and questions will help you to review the NEC, and the answer key is included, so you can check yourself and keep on track with your studies.
Printed in full color, the 2008 Exam Prep book covers Theory, Code, and Calculations in great detail. Clear colorful graphics guide you step-by-step through all the material you’ll need to pass your exam the first time. This book contains hundreds of illustrations, examples, and practice questions covering all of these subjects including 36 practice quizzes. This book is intended to be used with the 2008 National Electrical Code.

2008 NEC Exam Practice Questions book by Mike Holt
The NEC Exam Practice Questions Book contains 2,400 questions from the National Electrical Code. There are 12 review quizzes of 100 questions each that are in code order and take you step-by-step through each of the 9 chapters of the National Electrical Code. The 12 practice quizzes of 50 questions each follow the NEC Review quizzes, but are presented in random order and contain questions different than those in the review quizzes.
In addition, this book contains 12 challenge quizzes of 50 questions each that cover all 9 chapters of the National Electrical Code. The questions in the challenge quizzes do not follow the chapters of the Code book as the other quizzes do, they are also organized in a random manner, and you might find them harder to answer. Scores for the first few challenge quizzes might be somewhat lower than you would like to see. But, as you go through this book and take the review and practice quizzes, you’ll learn a great deal and gain a better understanding of the material. This improved knowledge and understanding will help you improve on the challenge quizzes as you go.
