State law and board rules aren't on the trade exam at all - Nebraska handles that with a separate take-home quiz you submit after you pass. That means the full 240 minutes and 80 questions are entirely NEC trade content, no law questions eating your clock.
Open book per the current PSI bulletin. The exam is written knowing you have the code - the skill being tested is finding the right section fast and applying it under the clock. That's trainable, and timed practice in the real format is how you train it.
Exam details change. Always confirm the current format, references, and code edition with the official PSI candidate bulletin before test day.
