    Electrical PE Exam - Apr. 2017

    I can't see the diagnostic report. It shows up as a broken link. I passed the A-17 EE Power Exam and I can give you some tips if I could see the diagnostic. Thanks

    CA Results

    Does CA usually release results after a board meeting? The reason why I'm asking is because the latest BPELSG newsletter mentions that in their June 1st meeting in Eureka, there will be an "Update on Spring 2017 Examinations". The meeting agenda can be viewed here...

    So how was it?

    I would say CI was worth it. The CI practice exams do have some obscure topics that you might not see on other exams. I remember a question that was very similar to CI that people may not have focused on much, but it was worded differently. Plus there are tons of problems on CI that focuses on...

    Electrical PE Exam - Apr. 2017

    If you did all of those tests (like I did), I would say you were about 60% covered on the exam. The other 40%, however, while I dealt with in some of my classes and at my work was no where near what I saw on any practice exam - and I did all of them.

    Electrical PE Exam - Apr. 2017

    After the exam, I really didn't have a feeling if I passed or failed. I didn't feel I bombed the exam, but I didn't feel as if I passed either. I was content on how I did. Overall, I think I studied about 150 hours, mostly doing practice exams. I thought the effort was well spent, even though...

    To those taking the April 2017 exam...

    Thank you! I've read a lot about the 'wait' what I'm planning to do is 'take it, and forget it'. No more studying and if I don't pass, I'll just re-open the books about a month or two from now. I'm actually a lot less nervous for this test than the FE exam, which I took two years ago.

    Generators in parrallel?

    Hello, THis is one topic I can't find much information on. Is having two generators in parallel the same concept as transformers in parallel as far as calculations go? Thank you

    So a month left - how is everyone's study going?

    Wildi has been very helpful - especially at understanding topics. He does a great job talking about things without getting too much on theory. I haven't used Grainger much in my practice exams. The only times I've used it have been for some transmission line problems that dealt with...

    So a month left - how is everyone's study going?

    Yes, I've come across the same issue at times with the Tom Henry Index. I'm thinking though it is because I've never used to the NEC for work and I'm a little behidn on practice problems. I'm going to spend most of this weekend doing NEC from CI and the NCEES sample exam.

    So a month left - how is everyone's study going?

    Hello, It hasn't been referenced much on these boards, but I get it free from work so I thought I'd just take it...in case. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

    So a month left - how is everyone's study going?

    I really like the strategy for re-doing the missed problems on certain exams 1-2 days later to make sure you can solve that problem again. Really reinforces the concepts. For the NEC problems - how is the Tom Henry Keyword Index working for ya? I've used it a couple of times on the CI problems...

    So a month left - how is everyone's study going?

    Don't post much, but thought it would be interesting to see what others are doing for study and what references you have chosen for the April 2017 Exam. As for myself, I started off thoroughly going over the practice NCEES exam about 2 months ago. On the first take, I didn't do to well. But I...

    NCEES Power Problem 114

    Hello all, This problem presents an inverter schematic that is used for a variable speed motor and has ideal transistors that operates as an ideal switch.  I was wondering what material I can use to learn more about this problem? I have Wildi and Grainger.

    NCEES Power Sample Exam #108

    Hello all, I'm still a little confused on why the solution did not use the conjugate of the complex power as we are solving for the current. Any other information would be great. Thank you.
