About the California Electrical Sign License

A sign contractor fabricates, installs, and erects electrical signs, including the wiring of such electrical signs, and non-electrical signs, including but not limited to: post or pole supported signs, signs attached to structures, painted wall signs, and modifications to existing signs.

Please view our Application Processing Services to streamline this process.

The Sign (C-45) Examination is divided into five major sections:

1. Planning and Estimating (22%)
• Sign criteria and codes
• Plans and specifications

• Electrical requirements
• ADA requirements
• Material, labor, and equipment estimation

2. Sign Design and Fabrication (20%)

• Neon design and fabrication

3. Sign Installation (26%)

*Percentages are approximate*

This is a multiple-choice examination with four choices per question. Examination questions are written to provide only one BEST answer. Some questions require mathematical computation. A calculator will be provided. There is no penalty for guessing. If you are unsure about a particular question, it is better to try to answer the question than to leave the question blank. Plenty of time is provided to answer all examination questions, so be sure to read each question and its four choices completely and carefully before selecting the BEST possible answer to the question.

The Electrical Sign Manual briefly covers the major topics of the State exam including Electrical Theory, and summaries of UL 48 and the National Electrical Code. The last section of the Electrical Sign Manual covers the Health and Safety Orders.

The Business Math and Architectural Scale Lecture covers the first part of the Electrical Sign manual. The Health and Safety Lecture covers the Health and Safety Orders at the end of the Electrical Sign manual.

The C-45 Practice Exams are currently being revised to bring them more in line with the current State Exam. This is a time consuming process since few students take the C-45 Exam and we receive little feedback on the course. While it is important to study all of the practice exams, please be sure that you pay special attention to the C-45 Update as it is the most recent information we have available for this course. It is important to read and understand each question, and read every word of the explanations. It is necessary to learn the principles behind the question because the State’s questions may be worded differently.

The C-45 Electrical Sign Contractor’s Computer-Assisted Practice Tests are supplied on a computer disk which will load a software program on the student’s computer. The program presents questions one at a time, automatically scores the exam, presents the student with a grade, and lists each question answered incorrectly along with the correct answer.
