I'm trying to calculate Susceptance and conductance values for a three phase transformer using the field test report. I have excitation current in % (i believe % based on name plate current rating). Voltage is 100% and no load losses in KW. I'm trying to convert everything to per unit and then...

Take them as long as you know them well. Remember, it's better to have more than less. Just don't count on using every book. Figure out your main references and the rest, they will come in handy when all else fails. I threw in some material on protection and the NESC book last minute and I'm...

You take 3phase R, X, multiply by 2.

i have some material i can share. But i don't know how to post a zipped folder in this message box.

i used my Michael Lindenburg FE reference manual which was very helpful.

The entire book is important. The handbook is big because it has explanations of rules and sample calculations. You may want to familiarize with Appendix for conductor selection and conduit selection. Also motor calculations. You need to get a basic idea of how to find any topic in the book. The...

IIT has a course, but I wouldn't recommend it. The coursework is not great for the exam, just for NEC.

I would recommend SPin-up too. Spin-up covers cerain topics like PLCs, batteries, rectifiers and NEC in a better detail than CI. I presonally felt that the level of difficulty of Spin-up is more than CI. Atleast from the April exam the lesson learnt is not to skip any of the topics.

I'm selling my PE books. Here is the link... http://engineerboards.com/index.php?showtopic=21529

if you have $20 extra, i would recommned you to spend on Mike Holt's NEC questions. The website has about 4 free tests and with $20 you can get access to ~2000 questions. It includes questions on any topic in the NEC, which is important for P.E exam. I did about 400 questions and I was able to...

Does charging current due to line-ground capacitance decrease as tower height increases?

My friend took the October exam and he had a bunch of notes in Pencil, he didn't have any issues. I guess best thing would be to put your pencil down to avoid any suspicion

If you have Wildi text books, it's mentioned in one of the distribution chapters

I called the board, materials written in pen are allowed, but they should be bound.

Even the NCEES practice test has a couple of questions on NESC, there would be a couple I would guess. I called the board, they told me 2012 NESC

I bought the 2012 NESC by IEEE. Is this the correct book for the exam? There are tone of books that say NESC and by different authors and some for electricians etc.

my state doesn't have specific rules other than NCEES rules. I have one particular book that i pretty much etched each page in pencil when i used that book during undergraduate classes. i have all my other material in a binder, no loose papers.

I'm planning to take a bunch of text books which have notes written in them using pencil. Would it be problem?

here's how i calculated MW sharing, P=slope (fnl-fsys)
