I took the power module as well. First and foremost...the NCEES study guide. I thought that Machines, Drives, and Power Systems book by Wildi was a big help. I also had an old Engineering Economic Analysis book from college that helped me out on a couple problems. There were some topics I...

I passed too!! (Electrical, 2nd time)

Unfortunately, I've taken both (power). It was different from breadth/depth in that the power questions (I thought) were a little harder, and obviously more of them. The NCEES questions were very similar to the exam. I liked the depth/depth better because there weren't any of those questions...

Yeah, I took it in April. The references I took were generally helpful, except that I really didn't have a good reference for the delta/wye balanced/unbalanced load problems. There were a few threads on this site that went step by step through a couple of those problems...it was really...

I had a bunch that I took, but the most helpful for me was the Machines, Drives and Power Systems by Wildi. (As for studying, the new NCEES Sample Questions is a must!). I also had an engineering economic analysis book (leftover from college) that was helpful. It had tons of examples of...

I thought it was hard, but I'm no genius. I could have used more time. I also felt like some topics were over represented. I took it last year (missed by one point) and thought I failed for sure. This year I'm not sure - hope I passed, but I did guess on several problems. How do they do the...

Flyer-PE - Can you explain the following in a little more detail (in reference to the system fault duty)? "In this problem, they give you the available short circuit current in the form of MVA. This value can be provided directly as an impedance, available short circuit amps, or MVA. Since...

I know this is probably really simple, but I'm having a little trouble with this problem. "The diagram below represents the Thevenin equivalent of a single phase distribution system. A fault occurs between point X and ground. Rf represents the fault resistance. The current If is 3600A when...
