Publisher's Synopsis
Targeted Power Exam Coverage in One Easy-to-Use Book
The Power Reference Manual for the Electrical and Computer PE Exam is the best source for the information you need to pass the Power exam. Developed for candidates seeking focused Power exam coverage, this comprehensive text aligns with and covers all the topics on the NCEES Power exam specifications.
Best-selling author, John A. Camara, PE, draws upon his professional experience and his years as an instructor to provide clear and focused explanations of the exam topics using step-by-step example problems. He also provides suggested references, time management techniques, and exam tips-all the tools you need to pass your exam.
Due to the changes in codes for the NCEES PE exam, there are some updates to this edition. Though not all of PPI's products reflect the adopted editions of the new design standards, in most cases the principles change very little. While specific procedures, equations, or values may change gradually from one edition of a design or reference standard to the next, PPI's books continue to provide an appropriate overview of the concepts presented, and will prepare you for the upcoming exams.
Once you pass your exam, the Power Reference Manual will serve as an invaluable reference for your daily power electrical engineering needs.
