Electrical Power PE Exam study material
(OP)
Hello!!!!
I finally received confirmation that I will be taking the Power PE exam this fall ( October 2015)
Can anyone tell me what code books and study material I should be looking to buy?
I'm guessing I will be needing the NEC 2014 and was going to buy the study packet from ppi2pass.com
any advise to help me pass this exam is welcome.
thank you

1) NFPA 70-2014 NEC Handbook
2) NFPA 70-E 2015 Electrical Safety Handbook
3) IEEE C2-2012 National Electric Safety Code (NESC) Handbook
I like the handbooks myself they have the code plus code interpretations by the author.
I took my PE 39 years ago, boy time flies. Slide rules and calculators were allowed back then. Had to wait almost 6 months for the results.
Hope this helps and good luck;
Dave
ps: If I can think of anything else, I will post it.

What I'm mean is, know how to use the use the code books and where to find the answer in the books. When I took exam, you needed NFPA 70 NEC for one question only and only allowed 10 minutes to get the answer. The question was simple question but where to find the answer. I believe the question was, how many amps allowed for 1 sq inch of cu and al bus bar. answer cu 1000Amp al 700Amp Answer found in Art.366.23(A) Auxilliary Gutters.
I know things have changed a lot in 39 years.
Again, good luck with the exam.

As for the NEC code there is every little questions about that maybe 10 percent of questions if any. If you don't know the code now is not the time to learn it. Choose other questions if possible. Remember- the guys that make these exams are professors in college that don't usually know the code. They are not guys working in the field. So the exam is academic problems from engineering text books. I would suggest using and reviewing your Engineering text books you already have.
Good luck
