    Relay setting for dummies

    Many years of experience but no PE references

    I am in the electric utility industry and was not encouraged to take the PE exam but decided to just to prove that I can do it. I had to have my current supervisor as a reference plus 4 more, 3 of which had to be PE's. I asked a PE from another company (and field of study) that I had worked with...

    What color was the pencil?!?!?

    We were in an exhibit hall in the Holiday Inn Downtown World's Fair location. The lighting was okay but the lights made a lot of noise. Earplugs were available so I used them to block that out. :)

    Deadliest Catch

    Man - You guys are making me think I might have to give up on one of the two shows I watched prior to preparing for THE TEST :( Oh well - I am trying to find what "normal" is for me now. I may just keep checking this site for my entertainment.

    Symmetrical Components Tutorial
