Electrician apprenticeship

About this practice suite

This suite prepares candidates for electrician apprenticeship selection in the skilled trades and apprenticeships sector with 4 skill areas: mechanical comprehension, electrical reasoning, spatial reasoning and technical reasoning. Every question was written by Novus editors for this suite — none are taken from live or leaked exams — and the full bank holds 52 scored questions across three modes, plus 8 reserve questions used to vary repeat attempts. Answer keys never ship to the browser: your answers are scored server-side, and results stay on your device.

Skills this suite practises

• Mechanical comprehension — Forces, motion, gears, pulleys, levers, fluids, pressure, and basic machines.
• Electrical reasoning — Basic circuits, current, voltage, resistance, symbols, and electrical troubleshooting.
• Spatial reasoning — Rotation, folding, views, orientation, maps, and three-dimensional visualization.
• Technical reasoning — Applied technical principles, diagrams, tools, systems, measurements, and troubleshooting.

Sample questions from the guided bank

Two of the 10 guided-practice questions, shown exactly as they appear in a session. Answers and explanations are not printed here — keys stay on the server — so open guided practice to answer them and see how you did.

1. A 120 V circuit carries 5 A. What power does it use?

   • A. 24 W
   • B. 115 W
   • C. 600 W
   • D. 1,200 W

2. Which material is normally an electrical insulator?

   • A. Copper
   • B. Aluminum
   • C. Rubber
   • D. Steel

Practice modes and timing

Guided practice is untimed-feeling and instructional; the mini-test is a short timed check; the full simulation mirrors a complete sitting. All three draw on separate question sets, so moving up a mode never repeats what you practised.
