    Please help with the additional Credit required for Science

    Hello, I thought passing FE, PE exams would be the hardest thing in the journey of becoming a PE. However, it seems like I am stuck with the credential evaluation since I will need additional 4hr credit to get my Illinois Stamp. I could either fly out and challenge CLEP chemistry (6 credit exam)...

    Hello, I am kind of confused after seeing two equations that usually we encounter in circuit analysis. It has been noticed that the secondary impedance can be referred to primary by multiplying it with the square of the transformation ratio. However, if we utilize the formula to change per unit...

    MVA method and calculating 3-phase fault apparent power and 3-phase fault current when X/R ratio is involved: PPI Exam 2 Question 152

    It does not really matter which MVA rating is considered as the base. If you are choosing Gen rating as a base, then you will need to convert the impedance to the new base when transferring to the 460V side. Since Primary voltage is not given in the question, the conversion seems impossible, and...
