    Silly question about neutral current In as sum of phase currents Ia, Ib, Ic

    Hi @akyip It's really a matter of preference. Most technical analysis books use the same direction of reference for the neutral as the three line currents which is from source to load. That's where the negative sign comes from. However, most engineers from a practical application perspective...

    Curious what chances you guys think of the Oct 2020 exam being canceled?

    Glad to hear you enjoyed it the transformer power flow and auto-transformer explanations.  The older webinars that are included as bonus material are very dated. Don't forget you can sign up for one month at the very end of the semester and have access to all of the live class recordings from...

    Curious what chances you guys think of the Oct 2020 exam being canceled?

    To be honest, I don't think it is going to be cancelled. The typical exam room is pretty well spaced out so there should be enough room for social distancing. With airlines still flying and kids going back to school in some states I think chances are pretty good that there will be a paper and...

    The Reference Handbook for the Electrical Power CBT (Computer Based Testing) PE Exam was released today

    Protection will still be there. Regardless of what is included (or not included in the case of protection) in the reference handbook, the exam specifications so far have not changed and protection remains the largest subject by number of approximate questions.  Can't hurt to bring with you for...

    How to Solve Transformer Flux, Reluctance, MMF, and Magnetic Circuits

    Magnetic circuits used to be one of my least favorite types of problems on the electrical power PE exam.It seemed overly complicated and resources that taught this type of problem were hard to find without diving too far into the subject of physics, which is beyond what the PE exam tests on...
