Texas journeyman plumber practice exam: 100 questions in 2 hours
100 questions · 2 hours · Pass mark 70% · Flag for review
TSBPE’s written format: 100 four-option questions in 2 hours, scored against 70% (70 correct), with code questions that read the same under the IPC and the UPC, fuel gas and Texas law.
Before you start
- Every question has four options and one correct answer. Each explanation says why the answer is right and why the most tempting wrong answer is wrong.
- Questions per section: 8 definitions, 12 general regulations, 8 materials and joints, 9 fixtures, 8 water heaters, 12 water supply, 12 sanitary drainage, 10 vents, 7 traps and interceptors, 8 fuel gas, 6 texas law and rules. TSBPE publishes no section weights, so this split is ours. No books are allowed in the real exam room, so practice without your code book.
- Skip, go back, flag questions and change answers in any order until you submit; unanswered questions count as wrong. The clock keeps running in background tabs and reloads; when time runs out, your answers are submitted.
- The hands-on practical (shop work, water heater installations and a model drainage and vent system) is not simulated here.
