For ground resistance, I downloaded these two documents (free) that someone posted here. I was very glad I did, as they proved very useful, especially the Fluke one. http://engineerboard...ke&fromsearch=1

I have posted these on amazon.com for sale. Prices are low because the two sample exams (not the practice problems) have lots of hand-written notes and correct answers circled. Please read descriptions first if interested. NCEES 2011 Sample Exam - $20.00...

I've been told that the certificates have not yet been mailed out, but that they should be sometime next week. Wallet card came about a week after the results were released. Can't wait to get my hands on that certificate though.

I'd read through the topics relating to study material in the electrical forum (the one we are in). There is a lot of very good advice that people may not re-post here. This info was extremely helpful to me. Having said that I imagine each test could be very different from previous tests, so...

That is all. There is nothing more for you here.

Rant Room !!! You Can Rant here about anything.

I'm No Grammar Nazi, But Capitalize Letters Annoy Me. They look stupid when someone capitalizes a word or adjective that is not a Proper Noun in the middle of a sentence, and Some People Simply Capitalize Lots of Words to Make Everything They Write Look Like a Section Heading. also, typing...

Nevermind - didn't notice the dates on this thread.

I sort of did the shotgun approach which worked very well for me. I ordered the PPI power package (EPRM, NCEES sample exam, PPI sample exams, PPI practice problems) which were good, except the practice problems book was so-so. The EPRM is certainly not all you need to pass. It contains a lot...

There are some people I know that got grandfathered in somehow without taking the PE exam. Even though this does not (and cannot legally) happen anymore in my state, it makes me a little :madgo: to think about it. It also makes me want to put something on my resume to inform employers/clients...

Can't speak for other disciplines, but I strongly agree that for electrical (FE and especially the PE) the Casio FX-115ES is the way to go. I used TI calculators for years, but mainly the graphing calculators which do handle complex numbers. Because of the people on this website I gave the...

I think the OP is referring to mutual inductance of lines that are not electrically connected in parallel, just located near each other. The connection shown in the diagram above would cause a fault. When studying for the PE exam I ran across this a bit in the Camara book, but had to get some...

I ordered both a rubber stamp and an embosser within 24 hours of receiving my license number. I work in an exempt industry and so other than using them to seal the required form to send back to the TBPE, they will probably sit unused for decades in my safe. But yes, I had to have them in my...

Me too! And I just opened a can of tuna fish to eat as a snack. My fellow cube-dwellers are most likely enjoying it with me as I write this.

I have ATT DSL (but of course you already know that :D ) and a Linksys router that I purchased, not from ATT . I log into the ATT DSL modem and select the "pass through" option, or whatever it is called. Basically I put my ATT login and password into my Linksys router which also handles the...

You're right, HD at 100 yds is unlikely except for something like a violent dog outside the house. Red dot sights are really intended for close quarters combat, and I figured he was more interested in using it for coyotes and such. I just really like red dot sights and think they are the best...

Unfortunately decent optics are expensive, and it may be difficult to get a good mount for $50. Even so, I'm surprised the folks at AR15.com didn't have any good suggestions. I know Mako and A.R.M.S. make some decent stuff that's typically less expensive than the priciest stuff (LaRue...

This is directed towards the "pre-December" Texas PEs, although anyone who happens to know about this feel free to answer. I am wondering approximately how long after the test does the board generally send out the certificates, what size they are, and if they look nice. I got an email...

1. Paul 2. Gigrich 3. Perry This was very iInteresting because while I feel that that some of the questions were worded badly so that choices common to many people I know were not available, the results matched up with me pretty well except for Gingrich, who would be my 2nd to last choice...
