What questions can be expected in the SEP E1 up to 1kV exam without a range of m

Hello

I have familiar network systems, protection against electric shock, basic information about the effect of current on humans (which current is worse, safe voltage, etc.), what determines the selection of the conductor cross-section, how it works and where the RCD can be used. What else is worth knowing not to be surprised during the exam?

#edit
If I have a question about the selection of the conductor cross-section based on the flowing current, I can say that 6A / 1mm2 is enough?

First aid, for sure. And when it comes to SEP, it's just a formality, simple questions

Yeah ... simple questions .... some butcher. He asked about everything. So many questions .... I don't recommend it.
I managed to pass everything except renovation. I did not take measurements.
Added after 10 [minutes]:
I just came back from the exam and I do not recommend it. He asked me for EVERYTHING.
At the beginning, I was doing well, what I learned in the technical school, he said quite elegantly that I had to be a technical school student and that you can learn.
Speed control of motors, starting, discuss asynchronous and synchronous, starting current limitation in a ring motor. Discuss networks, wire colors, basic protection
Later, he started asking questions about such crap as names of overhead poles, restrictions, such as deep wires under the pavement, not under the pavement, in the field ... what is put under the cables in the ground, how much sand is placed under it
What people does the renovation team consist of or something like that, it was about the permitting, supervising, etc. permissions, what is the course of work of such a team
There were a few more questions that I don't remember anymore.

Is the scope of the renovation important? Without it, I will not be able to do with the renovation team in homes and factories?

Some very annoying examiner. In our school, we ended up with 3 questions, they were a bit tricky but it was enough to think a little and everyone passed the finger in the nose

He also asked what is the difference between a bm and an ordinary fuse, I did not know it at all. He also asked something about switchboards.

Well, but you passed the exam?

I only did assembly, operation and maintenance. Maybe when I take measurements one day, I will try the renovation again.

The SEP exams are a total failure, old grandfathers tricking people on money, I have so much to tell about them ... a peasant asked me about some legal issues during the exam, during the 4h course, the woman tapped us about some laws, where let's not be charmed, no electrician learned it and he is not going to learn it ... I got two questions, I didn't answer any of them, I got all the qualifications I applied for, that's how it looked.

I feel cheated

These powers are "pic on the water", I got a question about safe voltages and what they depend on (resistance), the scope of responsibilities of the team leader and what is the resultant resistance in the case of series and parallel connection (formulas). I passed in 8 minutes with filling in the papers.

But you have leases.

@Dzonzi And your friend has a technical education?

Electronics technician, now studying Air

@Dzonzi It's strange that the commission was so demanding.

And where did you sep that you had it so easy? A friend works on the assembly of amplifiers and they did an exam there, he said that it was very easy, basic questions and a general informal conversation about work. Probably because they knew that these people work with electricity on a daily basis and have already learned something, but at our electrical department we also deal with electricity a lot.

I wonder what a normal commission in Wrocław looks like, if I wanted to do these measurements one day. My brother said that it is difficult and when someone renews them (like him), they ask in great detail and it is not as easy to pass as it is during courses in schools or factories. I would have to get hold of a commission where it is easy to pass it.

Do you study daily or in absentia?

Daily (signs .....)

I am an old-fashioned electrician and I have passed this exam several times.
Some of my own experiences;

1 - Note on naming. In the past, but also today, it is often said:
SEP exam or SEP certificate. This is a misnomer.
Today it is - Qualification certificate of the ERO (Regulatory Office
Energetics). It is divided into three groups: group. 1 - electrical equipment,
group 2 - energy devices, group 3 - gases (in short).
The certificates in the group are divided into: operational and regulatory.
It is further divided into: operation, maintenance, renovation, assembly, measurement, etc.
with a precise scope.

2 - The most interesting was the exam I took about eight years ago.
I worked in a company whose seat was in Poznań and had a dozen or so plants
in Poland. They had an agreement signed with the examination committee from Toruń.
Two gentlemen came. One was giving a lecture and the other was in the office
the director wrote out the documents. You entered the director's office,
the examiner asked a question - what qualifications for this Lord ?,
director was responsible - the first operational and regulatory group
without voltage limitations, group two steam boilers operation
and water, steam transmission networks, compressors, etc.

3 - Half a year ago I was renewing my entitlements (I work in another company)
The company bought a three-day energy course at ZDZ.
All participants of the course passed everything they applied for
(the exam was conducted by the same course as he conducted the course).

4 - The easiest way to pass the exam is if you are an employee of some larger company
and the company directs you to the course and exam.
If you are a private person, it is necessary to include e.g. measurement supervision up to 1kV
you have to take a course that is led by an examination board and it is no problem.
You have to pay for the course and exam.

On the exam I had in October last year at
such messages you would get operation and supervision: service, renovation,
assembly, maintenance up to 20kV.

6 - The scope and weight of the exam questions depends a lot on the length of service.
Young employees taking the exam for the first time are questioned heavily,
the old ones definitely less.

These are my personal experiences with qualifying exams
over the past 35 years.

You know, I was confused by the fact that part-time students work normally, so they need such qualifications.

I want to go on some summer internship and they require it in every advertisement

What if you ask what position? All in all, I will be looking for a job in the fields of mechatronics, maybe some automation or electrics + AiR studies in absentia.

Any saved with an electrician or automation. Even doing ordinary installations in apartments, so that I can learn something practical, because right after graduation, I will probably work on such installations abroad.
But of course I would prefer something more ambitious, such as PLCs, drives, inverters and even industrial robots.
Of course, I'm not looking for a paid internship, I just want to get into that position and study. No payment is no problem, and even realizes that I will be a cost for the employer ...

@Dzonzi Get a quick one-week practice and pack into your normal rate as normal.

What are you, I can't do it. Electricity is not a construction industry

@Dzonzi Well, you won't do it yourself in the band. A friend who did not have SEP or a technician normally did over 3k zlotys with installations during the holidays. And I can't believe that you can't connect circuit breakers or differentials

It's like I can, because we did it since in a technical college, but I think it's definitely not enough: /
I will say this, if I manage to get on such an internship at all, it will be a success, and if they still pay me, it is space at all
