Seal Requirements
The Kentucky State Board of Licensure for Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors publishes specific rules for what a Electrical Engineer seal must contain. When you seal a document you take responsible charge of it — you certify that the work was prepared by you or under your direct supervision and that it conforms to the applicable codes and standards. EngineeringID generates seals that match the board’s format requirements, but it is your responsibility as the sealing professional to confirm compliance for your specific document type.
Required elements for a Kentucky Electrical Engineer seal:
- Full legal name
- License number
- Professional Engineer
- Commonwealth of Kentucky
Kentucky seal format: Design: Circular seal, minimum 1.5 inches diameter · Size: minimum 1.5 inches
Statutory authority: 201 KAR 18:104
Documents that commonly require a sealed Electrical Engineer submission in Kentucky:
- Construction drawings and specifications
- Structural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) designs
- Engineering reports and feasibility studies
- Permit applications submitted to Kentucky building departments
- Any document where a licensed professional takes responsibility for technical content
Keeping Your License Active
Kentucky requires 30 PDH per 2 years of continuing education for Electrical Engineers. Complete it before your renewal date — the board verifies CE at renewal and generally will not accept credits earned for a lapsed cycle.
- Keep certificates of completion; Kentucky can audit your CE records after renewal.
- Courses must usually relate to your area of practice — confirm provider approval first.
- Carrying CE over from a previous cycle is typically not allowed.
Your digital seal remains valid as long as the license stays active, so completing CE on time keeps both your license and your sealing privileges uninterrupted.
Getting Licensed
To seal documents in Kentucky, you must hold an active Electrical Engineer license issued by the Kentucky State Board of Licensure for Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors.
License eligibility:
- Active, current Electrical Engineer license with the Kentucky State Board of Licensure for Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors
- No restrictions, suspensions, or disciplinary actions on the license
- Continuing education: Kentucky requires 30 PDH per 2 years to keep the license current
- Government-issued identification that matches the license record
Kentucky licensure requirements: ABET-accredited engineering degree, 4 years experience, FE and PE exams.
Your Electrical Engineer license already represents your qualification to seal documents. No additional examinations or certifications are required beyond your initial licensure and any mandatory CE required by Kentucky.

Renewal & Maintenance
Your seal remains valid for exactly as long as your underlying Kentucky license is active and in good standing. When you renew your license with the state board, your seal is automatically renewed with no action required on your part.
License renewal basics:
- Renewal period: typically every 2 years for most Electrical licenses
- CE requirements: Kentucky requires 30 PDH per 2 years — complete it before each renewal
- Fees: paid directly to the Kentucky board
- Submission: through the board’s online portal or by mail
If your license expires: Your seal becomes invalid for new documents. Previously sealed documents keep their seal as a historical record, but verification will show the license is no longer active at the current date. Renew and your seal reactivates automatically.
If your license is suspended or revoked: Your seal is invalid immediately for new work. Historical seals remain verifiable but are clearly flagged. Reinstate the license through the board’s process to restore sealing privileges.
Best practice: Set a calendar reminder 60 days before your license expires. Keep your EngineeringID email address current so renewal notifications reach you.
Worth Knowing
- Plan your 30 PDH per 2 years early. The board verifies completed CE at renewal, and the queue is longest in December–January.
- Keep your sealed project records for at least 7 years — the board can request them during an audit or complaint.
