About the ASSE 5110 Exam
ASSE 5110 is the national certification for Backflow Prevention Assembly Testers who field-test reduced pressure (RP), double check (DC), pressure vacuum breaker (PVB), and spill-resistant vacuum breaker (SVB) assemblies.

The 1.5-hour practical exam requires the candidate to demonstrate the test procedure the local authority having jurisdiction requires (such as USC 10th Edition, ASSE or EPA) on RP, DC, PVB and SVB assemblies; all ASSE exams are closed book.

What does an ASSE 5110 Backflow Prevention Assembly Tester do?
A 5110 Tester performs the annual field test required by the water purveyor and the AHJ on reduced pressure (RP), double check (DC), pressure vacuum breaker (PVB), and spill-resistant vacuum breaker (SVB) assemblies. The tester confirms that each check valve holds tight, that the differential pressure relief valve on an RP opens at the correct value, and that air inlets on a PVB or SVB open at or above the required pressure, then reports the result to the purveyor.
How many questions are on the ASSE 5110 exam and what is the passing score?
The ASSE 5110 written examination is 100 questions and requires a score of 70% or higher to pass. Candidates must also pass a hands-on practical exam that includes the field test procedure for RP (ASSE 1013), DC (ASSE 1015), PVB (ASSE 1020), and SVB (ASSE 1056) assemblies without notes or assistance.
