    Spinup vs Complex Imaginary for Power PE Exam

    Definitely use all four to study to get started but i can tell you from taking the exam twice, studying those books is like taking a paintball gun to a real war zone. Besides studying those, i recommend you concentrate a lot more on power engineering books. Theodore's wildi electrical machines...

    Well, how did everyone feel about the April 2012 Exam?

    I guess it's my turn to chip in. That was my second time taking the test, first time was last October. This exam was totally different than last time. I think there was only one question from the last exam that was either super similar. I thought this exam was easier than the October one. I did...

    Opinion on Substation/T-Line Engineer

    The substation/t-line has been pretty hot since i first started in 2007, and there are no signs of it stopping anytime soon. There are tons of projects all over the country and tons of money to be spent in the next ten years in adding/upgrading t-lines, leading to more substation work...

    Relay Schemes

    I guess it doesn't hurt to bring it with you, but having taken the exam already once, i think that this is not PE exam material.

    NESC 2012 or NESC 2007

    I didn't see the use for that book in the October 11 exam, but you never know, it might be needed for the April 12 exam.

    NEC 2011

    i am taking the exam second time here. i used NEC 2008 and scored 7/10 because the remaining three questions drove me crazy since i swear they don't exist in the book.. i will be using NEC 2011 for the April exam, it's more than enough, you don't need the handbook.

    Electrical Power Pe Exam Results

    Good job to all who passed. I unfortunately failed (in TX) and that was my first time and i took the TestMasters course. The afternoon section destroyed my score. It's a shame we can't discuss questions that came on the exam on this board, because i really want to know how anyone figured out the...

    PE Exam Tip

    Actually, that's my first time taking the test, but i was told about that in my PE class. Either photocopy what you have and/or write in ink over your pencil notes. Better do that than get in trouble with one of the exam proctors.

    PE Exam Tip

    Quick tip for the examination: Do not use pencil on any of the reference material that you'll be bringing with you to the exam, ALWAYS USE PEN instead. Reason is that they don't want you to copy exam questions on your notes. I might be stating the obvious, but wanted to let ppl know about this...

    i am doing the same as you, 2 hrs a day after work and 5-6 hrs for the past 6 weeks. i'll be increasing my study hours as the exam gets closer. i am not counting hours, what counts is that i study the correct material that's going to be on the exam. Good luck to all, it's easier than the FE but...

    Study advice/ tips?

    I took the FE in October 2010 after 6 years out of university and i passed. I enrolled in the Testmasters class in Houston. It was expensive, $1000 which i paid from my pocket, it really paid off. I only studied the material they provided and it was enough for passing. I studied for 3 months...
