Does the power pe exam cover dc machines, or just ac?

Anyone know if the exam will cover DC machines, or is it just AC machines?  Can anyone who has taken it recently tell me?  Thanks!

"Induction machines" is one of the power exam specifications.  And by definition, can include AC and DC machines.

Thanks for the reply @knight1fox3.  The study guide I'm using (Graffeo) seems to only refer to AC machines, including the part that covers induction machines.  Have you taken the exam?

Yes I have taken the exam.  I can attest that most of my study efforts focused on AC power.  But I did make it a point to at least review some basic DC machinery topics.
