Confirm This Is the Right License for Your Work

Every state licensing board defines the exact project types, sizes, and trades that fall under each contractor classification. Review the scope below to make sure this license matches the work you actually do — then enroll in the seminar that prepares you for that exam the first time.

This license is a specialty license under the major classification of Municipal Utilities.

License Requirements

Pre-approval from the state is required to sit for the examination.
Please note that the Alabama Business and Law exam is also required to be passed to obtain your contractor’s license.
This license is required for work over $50,000. Applicants must document at least 3 completed projects in the past 3 years in the category for which they apply.
The Board requires applicants to complete an official financial statement form provided by the Board which requires current financial information, less than 1 year old. It must be completed by a CPA and show that applicants meet the Board’s $10,000 minimum net worth AND working capital requirement. Maximum bid limits will be set depending on financial status.
There are no state mandated financial requirements for this license at this time.

Reciprocity

Alabama has a reciprocity agreement with the following states for applicants that have held a license for 3 consecutive years: Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee.

Continuing Education

As of this time Alabama doesn’t require continuing education for this license.

The Exam

The fee for the exam is $96.
The Alabama Power Projects and Plants Exam has 50 questions and a time limit of 2 hours.
A score of 70% is required. (35 correct)
Topics covered on the exam are transformers, electrical knowledge, conductors, overhead lines, underground lines, equipment and safety, grounding methods, service drops and laterals, poles and structures, and electric supply stations.
To schedule your exam, you must first obtain pre-approval from the board. Then, contact PSI at 1-800-733-9267.
