Where does it live?

The code half of the exam is open book. The answer is in front of you. What runs out is the time you spend deciding where to look, so this drills only that.

Wisconsin reads two books right now

The Wisconsin examinations are open book, and the DSPS exam pages still name the 2017 National Electrical Code. DSPS expects its exam updates to be completed by 1 October 2026. The field code, SPS 316, went to the 2023 edition on 1 September 2026 under CR 26-016. This page holds no table values, but the sections it names are the 2026 numbers.

The article level moves are concentrated at the two ends of the book: Chapter 1 took in load calculations from Article 220 and energy management from Article 750, and the limited energy and communications material was rebuilt across the 720s. Ampacity, overcurrent, grounding, motors and boxes kept their articles, and Chapter 9 is still the tables. What we hold on the moves compares the 2026 edition with the 2023 one, and the record does not reach a 2017 book, so it cannot tell you what any of these numbers is in the edition the Wisconsin exam tests on today. Look each one up in your own copy.

A question appears in the wording an exam would use. You name the article. It is scored in seconds, because seconds are what you are actually short of.

Some of the wrong answers are article numbers that no longer exist. A few died this cycle. Others have been dead for years and still turn up in old study material. Those are the ones worth getting wrong here rather than in the exam room.
