Just for clarification, are you refererring to questions that are in the various review materials or questions that test takers actually saw on the exam? The second scenario is not permissable. Just wanting to make sure I understand the question.

Not only is it not permissible, it would also violate the NCEES user agreement that each of us acknowledges prior to taking said exam. But let's get some clarification here first before jumping to any conclusions.

If the PE questions were not challenging, then this forum would not exist.

If the PE questions were not challenging, then this forum would not exist.

Or the PE exam would not exist.

Make sure you understand the difference between motors and generators. For your application, make sure to treat it as a generator.

Here is a helpful topic. I had the same problem back when I was studying for the exam.

The above Question is from a Text book "Electric Machinery" by A.E. Fitzgerald. page 273, sixth edition.

Also can I post sample question from NCEES exam I have some trouble understanding explanation of 2 or 3 question? It is permissible?

Thanks for the help guys. Much appreciated.
