Test Q & A for the Journeyman
A good start for the journeyman electrician test prep. This book is an excellent text book and is used by a local technical college in an electrical training course. The practice exam questions are on target with the Experion, Block, ICC, and Tompson-Prometric tests I have taken. By using this text and a loose leaf copy of the NEC an apprentice should be able to pass their exams with flying colors.
Sloppy editing!
I bought this book to help me study for an upcoming master's exam based on the 2005 NEC, so I started with the Maser Level Quiz section. Immediately I found errors in editing. In the answers to the Master Level Quiz, on page 303 I found the following: "First you need to convert the 0.0837 inches to mils, which is 83.7. Because you are dealing with circular mils, you have to multiply that times 2, which gives you 7000.57 circular mils. Next, multiply that by the number of strands in the conductor 16 x 7005.7 = 112091.2..." Last time I multiplied 83.7 by 2, I got 167.4. If I SQUARE 83.7, I get 7005.69, but even that figure is noted wrongly as 7000.57. There are also wrong code references, like answer 8 on page 303 guiding us to Table 430.150 (which doesn't exist), when they mean 430.250. Answer 9 refers to Section 250.32(B)(1), which gives almost the opposite answer of the correct reference, which is 250.32(B)(2) In my opinion, these small errors erode the value of this book as a study guide.
Wish I Bought this Book a Long Time Ago
I am glad I browsed threw amazon for a book to help me study for the Electeical Exam. I have other books but none brake it down like this one. Thank you amazon for meeting my needs, My book was here so fast I was surprised to see the book in the mail after the 2nd day ordering. I am sure to pass my test with this book it has every subject in the order of the test. Again thank you Amazon. J.M
