Electrical Safety Compliance Professional
(CESCP): 200 Practice Exam Questions &
2024 NFPA 70E Study Guide Latest 2026.
1. According to NFPA 70E 2024, an Electrical Safety
Program must include principles of:
A) Lockout/Tagout only
B) Human performance and error management
C) Maximum fault current calculation
D) Preventive maintenance scheduling
Answer: B
Rationale: NFPA 70E 110.1(I) now explicitly requires addressing
human performance and error management in the electrical
safety program. This reflects that human error is a leading cause
of incidents.

2. A facility has not updated its electrical safety program for 3
years. Under NFPA 70E 2024, how often must the program be
reviewed?
A) Annually
B) Every 2 years
C) Every 3 years
D) Only after an incident
Answer: C
Rationale: NFPA 70E 110.1(H) states the electrical safety
program shall be reviewed at intervals not to exceed 3 years.
3. Scenario: A maintenance supervisor says, “We’ve never had
an arc flash injury, so our PPE approach is fine.” Is this compliant
with NFPA 70E?
A) Yes, if incident energy analysis was done once
B) No, because the program must be based on risk, not past luck
, Page 3 of 29
C) Yes, because OSHA does not require arc flash PPE
D) No, but only if voltage exceeds 600V
Answer: B
Rationale: NFPA 70E emphasizes proactive risk assessment.
Absence of past injury does not eliminate risk. The program must
be based on actual hazard analysis and updated.
4. Which of the following is not a required element of an
electrical safety program per NFPA 70E 110.1?
A) Electrical hazard identification
B) Risk assessment procedure
C) Equipment inventory with serial numbers
D) LOTO procedures
Answer: C
Rationale: Serial numbers are not required. Hazard ID, risk
assessment, and LOTO are explicitly required.
