Study Guide for PE Electrical and Computer - Power Exam: Practice over 700 solved problems with detailed solutions based on the NCEES® PE Power CBT Exam Specification

"Study Guide for PE Electrical and Computer" is, hands down, one of the best resources I've ever encountered for anyone preparing for the PE Power Exam. From the very first chapter, it’s clear that this book isn’t just another run-of-the-mill collection of formulas and practice problems—it’s a true masterclass in understanding the concepts behind the questions. What sets this guide apart is its remarkable attention to conceptual clarity. Instead of pushing rote memorization, it patiently walks you through the "why" and "how" of every topic—whether it's power systems, protection, machines, or electronics. Every chapter is designed to deepen your actual understanding, making it easier to tackle not just familiar problems, but also the inevitable curveballs the exam will throw your way. The explanations are incredibly thorough without being overwhelming. Diagrams are clean and purposeful, examples are worked through methodically, and key takeaways are emphasized just enough to drive them home without feeling repetitive.

It’s not just a study guide—it's an investment in your career. Whether you're just beginning your preparation or looking for that final push to reach exam-day readiness, "Study Guide for PE Electrical and Computer" will absolutely be one of the best resources you can buy. You’ll walk into the exam with not just knowledge, but confidence—and that's priceless. Highly, highly recommended to anyone serious about passing the PE Power Exam!

I used the "Study Guide for PE Electrical and Computer - Power Exam" by Wasim Asghar along with his course to prepare for the PE Power Exam which I passed in September 2025. This book was particularly helpful in my success as it follows an incremental approach to understanding and problem solving which helped me better develop problem solving and most importantly further improve my understanding of Electrical and Power Concepts without many hiccups. The book has problems and solutions for all the core areas and is a very helpful investment in the preparation of the course. I highly recommend the book for any individual desiring to take the PE Power Exam.

This is a question book, best used as a supportive source alongside your main study materials. Exam candidates should study each topic in advance, but this book provides high-quality, conceptual questions that reinforce what you’ve learned. - Large question bank for thorough practice - Covers almost everything in the updated PE Power exam specs - Detailed solutions that not only remind you of what you studied but also teach you new insights you won’t easily find elsewhere

Great study that covers all of the critical concepts when preparing for the PE Power Exam. The NCEES spec has recently changed but the contents of the study guide still cover 99% of what you need to know in order to pass the exam - so don't hesitate purchasing just because of the recent spec changes. I was in the same boat but glad I purchased this and spent time reviewing the problem sets. This will reinforce your understanding in every subject area and help you become fail proof on exam day.

I highly recommend this book, especially during the last month of exam preparation. The questions are well structured according to the NCEES syllabus, and the formulas in the reference handbook are very useful. The additional practice questions helped strengthen my understanding. I completed all 720 questions in 25 days, which was instrumental in passing the exam on my first attempt.

Very well-structured book with plenty of practice problems that effectively reinforce both conceptual understanding and mathematical skills. To get the most out of it, I recommend pairing it with Wasim’s On-Demand Live Course for a complete 360° preparation experience. One area for improvement would be to include more problems that require multi-step reasoning. Most current problems involve finding just one missing variable, whereas PE Power exam questions often require solving for two or more variables before reaching the final answer. Adding such problems in future editions would make the book even stronger.

I passed the PE exam on the 1st try and this book was a big reason why. It was actually the last book I reviewed during my prep. I wish it had been my first. I guess the only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the exam ended up having way more qualitative questions than I expected and this book prepares you more for the math-based questions. That said, I don't know if there's a better way to prepare for qualitative questions anyway, so I'd still recommend this book. Review this book first; then work through "Electrical Engineering PE Practice Exam and Technical Study Guide" by Zach Stone PE; and finally work through the NCEES Power practice exam. You'll do fine.

If you want confidence on exam day, this works. The questions are intentionally tougher, so you overprepare and the real thing feels manageable.

No buyers remorse! I have finished my B.Sc. degree in 2016 and this book played the main role as my preparatory guide for passing the PE Power exam within exactly “1 month and 4 days”. Tackling the huge amount of diversified problems within each topic was unequivocally essential for passing the exam (alongside my years of experience and rusty knowledge from my college days). HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

I just passed my PE on the first try after 25 years of graduation! I used Wasim's book for the FE and passed that one on the first try! Wasim's PE book is a great reference that will walk you through almost all sections of the NCEES handbook, focusing on calculations, analytics and math. The good news is that the actual exam is not as complex as most problems in Wasim's book, as they have been trying to minimize the use of a calculator, so if you master this book, you will have an easy session for the more analytics problems that need math during the exam. Wasim's book is terrific, however, you need to ensure using other references on top, to master on different subjects which need deep understanding of the practical applications too.
