[QUOTE="smoka, post: 5788069, member: 606721"] Lol, so 2 yrs of community college and working in the field for 3-4 years is something to brag about? You may know something about Power/electricity but what do you know about electronics from being an electrician? I graduated with a BSEE 3 years ago so I guess that would make me somewhat qualified to try to answer peoples questions here. Since graduating and working for past 2.5 yrs (company is in top 100 of fortune 500) I've mostly focused on control systems and machine design/improvements so I'll be the first to admit that my circuit analysis skills are rusty (use it or lose it). Since your job over the past xx years deals with electricity I'm sure you know much more about several subjects than my few semesters learning in theory and labs. I don't claim to know everything, but that won't stop me or others from arguing with you and making you prove me/us wrong [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] You forget that this is a Forum (and a fairly large one).
