Hey @Jeanrene Arsenault we have a 1B4 practice exam here: https://powerengineering101.com/1b4-power-engineering-multiple-choice-exam-practice-questions/ I'll be announcing the 1B4 SOPEEC breakdown this week as well, after reviewing the content and specifying the topics that are covered.
New Company taking over for Pan Global?
Any recent updates regarding replacement text books now that Pan Global isnt selling them? This maybe has been discussed on a previous post? I am curious if any new ones are being made by a different company? Ill be starting my 2nd class end of April and will be needing books. Im sure its easy enough to track down some used Pan Global ones with a bit of effort but im wondering about brand new non Pan Global texts. Cheers!

Great question @Adam George, The group behind PanGlobal (NAIT, SAIT and BCIT) have taken over the content and are reviewing it for copy write material before releasing all textbooks to the public for free. 4th and 3rd class will be released by the end of April. 2nd class part A will be reviewed next with part B to follow, along with 5th class content. I do not have dates for the release of the 2nd class material, but I assume it'll be within the summer months of 2026 or sooner.

Experience with the 3rd Class Exam vs. PE101 Question Bank
Today, I wrote the Power Engineering 3rd Class examination, and I found it quite challenging. In preparation, I had been practicing extensively using the question bank from Power Engineer 101. Those questions felt comfortable and answerable during my study sessions. However, when I sat for the actual exam conducted by Technical Safety Nova Scotia, I noticed that the questions did not align with the Power Engineer 101 material. In fact, the exam content did not seem to match even 1% with the question bank I had been practicing.

Hello @Lijin Krishna kumar, Thanks for sharing your experience and for the feedback โ€” itโ€™s genuinely appreciated. Our question banks are not designed to be memorized or to replicate provincial exam questions. Provincial regulators intentionally change wording, structure, and problem setup to test understanding and application, not recall. If a student studies by memorizing questions and answers, it can feel comfortable during practice but often doesnโ€™t translate well to the actual exam. The purpose of our practice exams is to: - Test knowledge and comprehension - Identify weak areas or misunderstandings - Provide feedback and direction on what to study further - Help structure ongoing preparation, not replace learning the material The most successful approach is to write the practice exams honestly, review results, return to the relevant material to strengthen weak areas, and then re-test to confirm understanding. Used this way, the exams function as a diagnostic and feedback tool rather than a study source. Your feedback is helpful, and we can certainly look at making small improvements to how this is explained on our practice exam pages, as well as adding clearer follow-up guidance to help students use the service as effectively as possible. We already outline this on the site, but real student experiences help us refine how we communicate it. If youโ€™d like help restructuring your prep or want clearer direction on how to use the practice exams alongside your study material, Iโ€™m happy to help. You can also book a 1-on-1 call here if that would be useful: ๐Ÿ‘‰ https://powerengineering101.com/power-engineering-tutorial-services/ Appreciate you taking the time to share โ€” feedback like this helps improve the service for everyone.
Hi everyone
Iโ€™m wondering if the 4th class ticket for Baffin Island can be challenged. I have 26 years experience with commercial low and high pressure systems and have an opportunity there . Iโ€™m in Newfoundland Canada

Hello @Dave Cunningham, while I do not have experience with Nunavut, I believe that other territories use ABSA as their certification regulator. If you can gather any info from your potential employer regarding the certification requirements, I can certainly help to guide your next steps.

@Dave Cunningham, Each province has their own applications and documentation requirements. Here is the link to the NL power engineering applications: https://www.gov.nl.ca/atcd/cert-powengblaster/power-engineer/ I recommend reaching out to James Brake, Power Engineering Program Development Officer for NewfoundLand and Labrador for more information. (709) 637-2333 or jamesbrake@gov.nl.ca.
