Electrical Testing News - TEXAS PSI EXAMS 2011 NEC ADOPTED BY TEXAS ON 09/01/2011  On October 1, 2011 Texas (TDLR) and PSI Exam Services began testing on the 2011 NEC.  PSI and TDLR have made several changes recently regarding the reference materials allowed into the exam site.  Please read the entire Candidate Bulletin for the most up to date info.  It is advisable to read the newest bulletin not less than 1 week prior to your scheduled exam.  One of the biggest changes was to no longer allow into the exam “Spiral Bound” or “Loose Leaf type” NEC Code Books.  Long notes are also not allowed.  You can have a Tabbed (using permanent tabs, not sticky note type tabs), and Highlighted Code Book with “brief Descriptive Notes”.  Currently the only NEC allowed into the exam is the Soft Bound Version and it can be tabbed and highlighted and have BRIEF descriptive notes in the code sections.
