I can celebrate a day early! PASSED!

I think the crux of understanding that subject is mastering the per unit method. The Chelapati book has some good material on that, so does the Schaum's Outline on Power Systems. Practice it until you are comfortable with the concept. The Grainger and Stephenson book that was mentioned also...

I also liked Schaum's Outline "Electric Power Systems" Lots of quick problems and easy explanations. Work the NCEES power sample test. I did use these problems during the exam, but I hear this is not allowed in some States. The Kaplan "PE Power Electrical Engineering Sample Exam" had some...
