Electrician
Testimonials
Mr. Henry, I Passed The Masters
Exam On The First Try and I was able to accomplish this feat
with your materials.
People are precious, and if you
don't know the Code, chances are someone will get hurt by an
unlicensed jack of all trades.
I was ignorant to this fact until
I finally decided to go after my license. I'm feeling like a
responsible electrician now! It is my belief, that anyone who
works in any trade that might cause a hazard to life or property
- Should Be Licensed. The Cities or the Insurance companies should
be aware and enforce this. Especially in factories, where anybody
can be hired off the street and twist some wires together. I
know, I was one of them in 1987. Finally, I worked under a very
skilled electrician for many years and learned.
It took three months of constant
studying, but when I found out I scored an 88% on the test I
was in shock. When a person leaves that testing room they are
sometimes not sure how they did. In my case I was confident in
most of my answers, but you always wonder - Did I read the question
correctly, did I mistakenly fill in the wrong dot, etc, etc.
All these things pop in your mind when you get in your truck
and head home! Anxiety Anxiety Anxiety AnxietyWow.
I have been in the trade for
23 years, mostly on the industrial side and was one of those
guys that thought all I needed to know about the code was T.310-16
and appendix C. I have been an automation technician for about
10 years now, and had no clue about the code minimums, and the
six steps to sizing motor branches and feeders. The only thing
I was aware of was, Overload protection and Overcurrent protection.
I went to school and got an automation degree a few years back,
and learned all that electronics, plc, digital, and circuit analysis
stuff.
But they did not teach the NEC !
These are the materials I purchased,
some at our local book store, and some through your website,
which by the way, is very well done. First I got Questions and
Answers for the Masters Exam. Took every test in that book and
realized I was not ready. Then I purchased a couple of the Calculations
tapes. I believe, Transformers and Ampacities were the first
two I bought. They were so helpful, I bought a couple more. When
all was said and done, I had the whole set of twelve in my library.
Each tape had something valuable on it that got me a step closer
to getting my license. Then I bought The Ultimate Code BookThe
key to the open book part of the exam. Anybody who wants to pass
this exam the first time, BUY THIS CODE BOOK! Then I got Taking
the exam with Tom HenryVery Helpful!
Still after taking the exam with
Tom Henry, I needed some work on the residential and commercial
calculations. I did not feel comfortable with this part yet.
So I got Tom Henry's Calculations book. That was all it took.
If I did not already have a lot of theory from college, I guarantee
you, I would have bought many more books. But I am one individual
that already had that knowledge. Most of my fellow brothers don't!
Your Staff was very helpful when I called about questions.
Thanks Again Tom Henry

Tom Henry and Staff,
I would like to take this time
to thank you and your staff for helping me pass the Virginia
State Master Electrical Test, which I passed with flying colors!
I couldn't have done it without you, and passing the test will
allow me to get my Virginia State Contractor License. If there
is anything I can do for you, don't hesitate to ask.
Thank you again,
Bill Dovel
Mr. Henry,
First I want
to say you have the best study books by far. I ordered you journeyman
set and the Ultimate code book. I made a 90% the first time I
took the test in Nassau County. I was wondering if you gave or
knew of any classes that teach Fiber Optic Splicing and Terminating?
Any information
you have would be appreciated.
Thanks again.

Dear Tom,
I am so excited!
I took my Masters exam last Saturday in St Louis and passed!
Got an 85.8%, which is higher than I thought I would get. The
exam was tough, and I wasn't sure I had passed when I left. I
spent every minute of the six hours going through the answers.
I can easily understand why only 22% pass the first time. I'm
proud to say that with your help, I'm one of them. I wouldn't
have had a chance without you and your CEC team.
I spent four
months this summer studying. This doesn't even count the hundreds
of hours I spent prior to getting my testing date, with the blessing
of the Belleville Electrical Commission in Illinois.
I've bought several
of your great books, all of which were invaluable:
1996 NEC - ultimate (Outstanding!)
1999 NEC - ultimate
(Outstanding!)
Grounding Workbook (Outstanding!)
1996 Journeyman Exam Questions
1996 Masters Exam Questions
1999 Masters Exam Questions (Couldn't have made it without these.)
Transformer Workbook (I
didn't have a clue.)
Motor Control Circuits (I didn't have a clue on this either.)
Electrician's Dictionary (I thought this would be a thin book. (WRONG!)
History of Electricity (Very interesting!)
Ohm's Law Book and Video (Outstanding, and easy to figure out with practice!)
Electron Theory (Very
helpful!)
How to Pass the Electrical Exam (Great Calculations exam in there too!)
1996 Calculations Workbook (Outstanding!)
Closed Book Audio Tapes (I listened to these tapes dozens of times, just
like you said.)
Closed Book Cards (Great!
I even cut 3 by 5 index cards in half and wrote out all the closed
book questions on them. My stack has about 900 cards in it.)
Conduit Bending Program (I'm still sore!)
1998 CEC Seminar (with
Tim Henry)
Without your
dedication and strong desire to teach us all you have, I wouldn't
have scored 40%. I can't imagine how many thousands of hours
of your time you have poured into your books and videos. You
truly have a passion to make the world a safer place by teaching
us the correct ways to
do electrical work, and I sincerely thank you for it. I feel
the same way about you and your CEC team as you do about Mr.
Joe McPartland, your mentor.
As a result of
your teachings, I am always very careful when doing electrical
work, because I know I could kill someone if I leave a connection
loose somewhere. It makes me shudder to think how many electricians
out there don't know what they're doing. Although I'll soon have
my Masters license, I certainly don't consider myself an expert,
by any means, so I will proceed accordingly.
Sincerely,
Jim Pickering
P.S. Since I didn't get 100% on my exam, I promise you that I
will learn the other 15% so I won't hurt anyone from the questions
I missed.
Just a note to
say thanks for the instruction at the Birmingham Seminar. Your
class was an excellent prep for the Alabama test. (scored 94).
Thanks again
and take care,

Subject: Your study-aids
Recently passed
the Master Electrical Exam. Now, I understand that I must pass
the Journeyman exam before I will receive my Master card? I am
aware that I am going through the back door to try to get to
the front porch, but thanks to the "Tom Henry" course
through Spartanburg Tech, I passed the master test. The material
that was purchased: Master Questions and Answers, Ohm's Law,
Calculations for the Electrical exam, Key Word Index (great help),
and highlighted and tabbed National electrical Code book, and
can't remember the other (brain dead).
Question, What
additional materials do you recommend for the Journeyman test?
Mr. Henry does
a great job presenting the material.
Thanks,
Aaron Free
Just wanted to drop you a
note and thank you for an excellent product.
The company I work for purchased your twelve Master series videos
and I personally bought the Master combo #2 study-aids package.
I believe these two sets of products were just the "ammunition"
I needed to pass the Georgia Masters Exam the first time.
I can't thank you enough for
such well designed, informative, and entertaining material.
I highly recommend it to anyone I talk to is considering taking
the state electrical test.
again thank you,
Chuck
