Dear NSED Licensee,

The Nebraska State Electrical Division (NSED) is pleased to announce that we will be launching a new online licensing and permitting system on Monday, April 13, 2026.

Specialty License Exams

Exams will be held in the office for those wanting to test for these specialty licenses:

Fire Alarm Installer, Sign Installer, Irrigation, and HVAC. 

8/1/24 Note

We have posted the updated State Electrical Act under the "About" section on our website. The most notable change is that the late filing fee has increased to $250. If you have any questions on the State Act Updates, please let our office know by emailing us at SED.Officestaff@nebraska.gov 

2023 Code Adoption

Continuing Education Update

As a reminder, approved courses are valid only until the end of each licensing period. This means that when licenses are up for renewal, you will also need to apply for course renewal.

For example, if your course was approved in January 2023 – your course would be approved through December 2024. AND, if your course was approved in January 2024 – your course would also only be approved through December 2024.
