    Back To The Drawing Board Again

    kduff70, I like your spirit...Don't give up...You can do it...Yeah, I would say focus more on the principles than anything else...That really helped me the second time...I read through Wildi as much as I could to understand all the basics and then went back to spin up, graffeo, CI, NCEES etc...

    V LG vs V NG

    If either of these values are zero, what does that mean?

    Average and rms value in a diode or thyristor/scr - Please help!

    When do you use (2*Vpeak)/3.14 and when do you use just (Vpeak/3.14) This is just so confusing esp. when going thru' these problems in CI tests....I am very nervous about the power electronics type problems in the exam :wacko: does anyone have set of formulas on this? (average, rms values...

    Voltage Drop Equation

    If the source is a 1 phase center tap line (V LN= 110V and V L-L = 220V), which voltage would you use to calculate voltage at receiving end?

    Voltage Drop Equation

    I have the same confusion...but i am planning to use only + because nec doesnt say anything about the sign. Can someone help?

    Please help! Confusion with 30 degree phase angle shift between delta wye in a transformer

    Hi All, This phase shift seems to be killing me. Based on Wildi, if wye connected, V L-N = (V L-L/sqrt 3) at angle -30 degree if delta connected I phase = (I line/sqrt 3) at angle -30 degree But in the attached problems, eg. E-25, at the end, Ia seems to be calculated at -30 degree. I think...

    CI Test #1 & Test #4

    So the correct formula is R cos(theta)+ X sin (theta) regardless of lagging or leading pf, correct?

    DC machine losses

    Why does one of the questions in test 4 in CI say DC machines do not have hysteresis losses? I thought the correct answer would be stray losses?
