[RE-wrenches] NABCEP Test

[Jamie Johnson]

That sounds about right, a NABCEP board member told me they meet and vote on the difficulty of each question.

So 5-7 weeks of wondering if you have what it takes to pass.........

When you get the email notification it will say "congratulations" or something to that effect in the subject line when you pass, not sure what it says if you don't.

What was your experience.  Also, the e-mail yesterday said that the Board has to decide what grade will be a passing grade?  Can that be true?  Does the grade get set to control the number who pass or fail?  That doesn't seem right.

It is the same as the OZ-Gedney AX expansion coupling for rigid conduit, but uses a rigid nipple and EMT connectors to adapt to EMT. The assembly is UL listed.
