You know the trade. The wiring, the distros, the tie-ins. But the ETCP exam doesn't test what you do every day on a call — it tests whether you can prove it on paper, under a three-hour clock, across 150 questions that don't care how good you are with a cable in your hand. Fail it, and you eat the testing fee, lose the days you spent preparing, and watch the certified jobs, the better rates, and the lead positions go to someone who walked in ready when you didn't. This book closes that gap. It turns the knowledge already in your hands into the score that puts the credential on your résumé — and the leverage that comes with it. INSIDE THIS BOOK • Built on the real blueprint — every chapter maps to the official ETCP Entertainment Electrician and Portable Power Distribution Technician content outlines, so you study exactly what counts. • Theory you can actually use — Ohm's Law, three-phase power, harmonics, and the 1.732 factor explained so they stick, not just memorized. • Seven full-length simulation exams — 1,050 questions matched to the real exam's count, structure, and domain weighting. • Practice in the book and beyond — Exams 1 through 4 in these pages, Exams 5 through 7 on the companion website by QR code. • 100 bonus topic-focused practice questions — extra reps on the concepts that decide pass or fail, free via QR code. • 100 digital flashcards — drill key terms, values, and formulas on a break or in the truck, free via QR code. • Power distribution mastery — distros, company switches, generators, transformers, and the tie-in sequence that keeps you alive. • Grounding and bonding made clear — finally understand why the bonding conductor clears faults, not the earth. • Codes that show up on test day — NEC, NFPA 70E, OSHA, ESTA, and the AHJ, sorted by what each one governs. • Life-safety drilled cold — lock-out/tag-out, arc flash, PPE, and emergency response, the largest single topic on the exam. • Systems planning that earns rank — load diversity, voltage drop, fault current, and single-line diagrams. • An interactive Exam Simulator — test yourself under realistic timed conditions before the real thing. This is for the working tech, the first-time candidate, and anyone who has sat for it before and refuses to pay twice. Skip the preparation and you pay again — in fees, in lost income, in jobs you watch go to certified hands. Add it to your cart now and walk into that testing center ready to pass.
