NFPA 70E 2021 Article, chapter and comprehensive practice exams
The CEST exam heavily emphasizes Articles 100 through 130, which form the foundation of electrical safety practices. Article 100 (Definitions) provides essential terminology including Arc Flash Boundary, Electrically Safe Work Condition, and Qualified Person definitions. This article establishes the vocabulary framework necessary for understanding all subsequent safety requirements.
Articles 110-130 constitute the heart of the exam content. Article 110 covers general requirements for electrical safety-related work practices, including risk assessment procedures and electrical safety program requirements. Article 120 addresses establishing electrically safe work conditions through lockout/tagout procedures and verification methods. Article 130 focuses on work involving electrical hazards when de-energization isn't possible, covering PPE requirements, arc flash risk assessment, and energized work permits.

🚨 Critical Reminders
For Current CEST Exam Candidates:
- ✅ USE: Module 1 practice exams (2021 NFPA 70E-based)
- ❌ DO NOT USE: These 2024 practice exams for your current certification attempt
- 📖 Reference: Only the 2021 edition of NFPA 70E during your exam
🎯 Who Should Use This 2024 Content
This section is particularly valuable for:
Current CEST Certificate Holders:
- Your CEST certification requires renewal every 3 years
- NFPA 70E requires retraining in safety-related work practices and applicable changes to NFPA 70E at intervals not to exceed 3 years
- If you earned your CEST in 2021-2022, you'll likely need to recertify based on the 2024 edition
Forward-Looking Professionals:
- Safety managers planning training updates
- Organizations preparing for the transition to 2024-based requirements
- Professionals wanting to stay current with electrical safety evolution
Advanced Learners:
- Those who want to understand the direction of electrical safety standards
- Individuals comparing changes between editions for continuing education
For Future Planning:
- The transition timeline to 2024-based CEST exams has not been officially announced by NFPA
- Typically, there's a transition period allowing both versions before full adoption
- Monitor NFPA announcements for official CEST exam update schedules
