A deep dive into the scope and exceptions of Minn. R. 7512 and Minn. Stat. 299M — what "fire protection-related work" means for a contractor versus a fitter, the surprisingly narrow definition of "inspect," the A-through-G contractor license exceptions, the "maintain" and emergency-impairment loophole, the homeowner and mine-safety carve-outs, and what happens when a shop loses its managing employee. Plus the insurance and bond numbers, and the one place you don't need them.
The disciplinary end of Minn. R. 7512 and Minn. Stat. 299M, start to finish — what gets your license or card revoked, the 7/14/28-day suspension ladder and its floors, what "willfully" really means, the $1,000-per-violation-per-day civil penalty, and the working-day clock on a cease-and-desist order. Learn how the state takes your card away before you find out the hard way.
Two fitters tear through Minn. R. 7512 and Minn.

If you can't tell "supervision" from "direct supervision" on the exam, this one's for you.
