1. Where do you shop for professional liability insurance (E&O)? Do you just google that? I was looking at CNA. Any other suggested one's based upon your experience? 2. For registering your company, can you have PO box number as your address in that state if you plan to work from home and...

I am electrical PE working for MEP consulting firm with more than 7 years experience. I would like to know the lessons learned, suggestions, pitfalls from people who quit their job to start their own consulting firm based upon their past experience. Sometimes I think I want to jump into it but...

Kentucky does not release the score, but it was enough to put PE after my name.

Passed PE Electrical Power in KY

I passed PE Electrical Power. I wanted to thank all the EB members and especially Flyer PE for always making an extra effort with the explaination to any problems and technical insight. Just wanted to let you all guys know that all the support and help provided is not forgotten.

I wanted to have this thread since in the past KY results were not posted on NCEES website. By the way, I passed.

I am still confused about this problem based upon the explanation and formula mentioned in Stevenson (page 108) which is; Q=Vt/Xd (Ei*cos delta - Vt) For this problem since delta =90, Q=Vt^2/Xd. With line voltage Q=square of 500kV/50=5000. What am i doing wrong here?

Can someone please explain, the relationship KVAR directly proportional to voltage square? The charge of the capacitor is Q = 1/2(CV^2). How that relates to KVAR?

It seems for this problem, the delta load is insignificant. Basically all the calculations are done for the transmission line. Even if the load had been Y, still you would end up with the same answer. Is that correct?

I would approach this by converting Z (Y) = 1/3 Z (Delta). Pph=Vph*Iph=208*(100/3)=6933 Watts P(Total)=3*Pph=20.8KW

Can someone please help me with this? Why is the stator current 1.05 angle (90 -18.19) and not 1.05 angle (-18.19)?

Can someone solve the following problem? 'A balanced delta connected resistive load of 8000KW is connected to the low-voltage, delta connected side of a Y-Delta transformer rated 10,000KVA, 138/13.8 KV. Find the load resistance in ohms in each phase as measured from line to neutral on the high...

Why can't I solve this with 50,000/[sqrt(3)*13.2]=2186A Is it because, the MVA and KV are just rated values of the Generator or is it because of the impedance of T.L. between the Gen & Transformer?

Thanks Flyer_PE. That's what I though too, but just didn't wanted to jump to the conclusion.

Can someone please help me to understand this problem; "3 Phase, Y, 6.25KVA, 220V syn. Gen. has reactance of 8.4 ohms/ph. Using rated KVA and voltage as base values, determine per-unit reactance. I am coming up with 1.08 pu and the solution is 0.627 pu. Base Voltage=220/Sq Root 3 =127V Base...

I didn't make it this time. My diagnostic is 54%, 69%, 69% and 67%. I had a feeling that this was going to be close, but I was still optimistic. Looking at the diagnostic score, would this be considered close? I would appreciate any advise/suggestions anyone has to offer to get through the...

Rei, From BICSI website https://www.bicsi.org/rcdd_exams.aspxTo apply for the RCDD credential, you must have passed the ITS Fundamentals examination and have at least one of the following: Five years ITS design experience Two years verifiable ITS design experience and three years additional...

From above posts it seems in general people think the test was not difficult. If that's the case, the passing score might bump up by a point or two.

If I pass PE this time, I am going for RCDD. My boss just passed the test but he took it in March with the old format. All new applications will be processed with the new format and everything about this certification is very expensive. Now with the new format, prior to taking RCDD test, you...
