Boundaries

1993–1995: Kirovgrad, Nizhny Tagil, Nizhnyaya Salda, Prigorodny District, Verkhnesaldinsky District, Verkhnyaya Salda [2]
The constituency was centred on a major industrial city Nizhny Tagil and covered surrounding areas in western Sverdlovsk Oblast, including industrial towns Kirovgrad, Nizhnyaya Salda and Verkhnyaya Salda.

1995–2007: Kirovgrad, Nevyansky District, Nizhny Tagil, Novouralsk, Prigorodny District, Verkh-Neyvinsky, Verkhny Tagil [3] [4]
The constituency was significantly altered following the 1995 redistricting, losing Nizhnyaya Salda and Verkhnyaya Salda to Artyomovsky constituency in exchange for Nevyansk and Nevyansky District.

2016–2026: Alapayevsk, Gornouralsky, Kirovgrad, Kushva, Nevyansky District, Nizhny Tagil, Verkh-Neyvinsky, Verkhny Tagil, Verkhnyaya Tura [5]
The constituency was re-created for the 2016 election and retained mots of its former territory, losing only closed city Novouralsk to Pervouralsk constituency. This seat instead gained Kushva and Verkhnyaya Tura to its north from Serov constituency as well as Alapayevsk to its east from the former Artyomovsky constituency.

Since 2026: Gornouralsky, Kirovgrad, Kushva, Nevyansky District, Nizhny Tagil, Sredneuralsk, Svobodny, Verkhnyaya Pyshma, Verkhnyaya Tura [6]
After the 2025 redistricting the constituency was significantly changed, swapping Alapayevsk for closed city Svobodny with Serov constituency as well as losing Verkhny Tagil and Verkh-Neyvinsky to Pervouralsk constituency. This seat also gained industrial satellite cities Sredneuralsk and Verkhnyaya Pyshma north of Yekaterinburg from Sverdlovsk constituency.
