New Mexico EE-98 and EE-98J electrical exam prep self-study
Prepare for the written NEC and electrical-theory portions of New Mexico’s EE-98 or EE-98J exams.
Build Code-navigation speed, calculation accuracy, theory knowledge, and a repeatable timed-practice routine.
This self-study system turns the same core NEC curriculum used in JCR’s instructor-led classes into a structured plan you can complete from anywhere. JCR has trained 20,000+ electricians since 1985. Our classroom NEC exam-prep students have a 93% pass rate.


Organize heavily tested NEC articles, tables, and sections so you can find them faster while studying. Apply the tabs only as permitted by the current testing-vendor rules.
The printed manual and videos organize the 2020 NEC navigation, calculations, and theory work shared by the written EE-98 and EE-98J components.
The exam Code book and other official references are sold separately.
Bring the approved 2020 NEC, New Mexico Electrical Code, and every additional reference listed for the exact component you scheduled. Practical and specialty components use different skills and references.

What is the difference between EE-98J and EE-98? EE-98J is the journeyman worker credential. EE-98 is the contractor qualifier classification and adds broader contractor-level exam and business-law requirements.
Does this prepare every New Mexico component? No. It prepares the written NEC/theory work. The EE-98J practical, EE-98 Part 3 specialties, and Business & Law need separate preparation.
Which bulletin should I use? Use the current journeyman bulletin for EE-98J and the current contractor bulletin for EE-98. Their component lists and approved references differ.
How long should I study? Most successful students plan on roughly 4–8 weeks for the written Code and theory work, then add separate practice for any practical or specialty component.
