The PE Electrical mock test on Wrexa Edge replicates the real exam's section structure — same names, same question count per section, same time limits. No inter-section breaks — the timer runs continuously.
PE Electrical scoring & marking scheme
Strategy: PE Electrical has no negative marking. Attempt every question — blank answers cost you potential marks but cannot pull your score down.
Scale: PE Electrical (pass / fail).
How PE Electrical is conducted
Mode
Proctored — Wrexa Edge mirrors this with a webcam-based proctoring flow (face detection, room scan, fullscreen lock, tab-switch detection).
Test format
Linear / fixed-form — every candidate sees the same number of questions per section.
Backtracking
Allowed — you can revisit and change answers within a section.
Mark for review
Available — flag tough questions and return to them before submitting the section.
PE Electrical time strategy
With 80 questions in 495 minutes, you have about 371 seconds per question on average. Successful candidates aim for the following pacing on each section:
PE Electrical Depth (80 Q)
Target ~371 sec/question. If a question takes more than 557 seconds, mark for review and move on.
Wrexa Edge's analytics show your actual time-per-question after every mock so you can spot which sections you're losing time on.

PE Electrical Depth (80 Q) · Math — Series
Q1. NUMERICAL: The Taylor series of e^x about x=0 is:
Why: Correct answer: D — 1 + x + x²/2! + x³/3! + … = Σ x^n / n!. Topic: Math — Series.
PE Electrical Depth (80 Q) · Prob — Basics
Q2. NUMERICAL: A fair die is rolled. The probability of rolling a 4 OR a 6 is:
Why: Correct answer: A — 1/3 — P(4) + P(6) = 1/6 + 1/6. Topic: Prob — Basics.
PE Electrical Depth (80 Q) · Prob — Independence
Q3. NUMERICAL: Two events A and B are independent with P(A)=0.3 and P(B)=0.4. P(A ∩ B) =
Why: Correct answer: B — 0.12 — independence ⇒ P(A)·P(B). Topic: Prob — Independence.
PE Electrical Depth (80 Q) · Stats — Mean
Q4. NUMERICAL: Mean of the dataset {2, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 7, 9}:
Why: Correct answer: C — 5 — (2+4+4+4+5+5+7+9)/8 = 40/8. Topic: Stats — Mean.
PE Electrical Depth (80 Q) · Stats — SD
Q5. NUMERICAL: Sample standard deviation s of {2, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 7, 9} (n=8, x̄=5):
Why: Correct answer: D — ≈2.14 — Σ(x−x̄)²/(n−1) = 32/7 ≈ 4.57; √4.57 ≈ 2.14. Topic: Stats — SD.
PE Electrical Depth (80 Q) · Stats — Normal
Q6. In a normal distribution, approximately what percentage of the data falls within ±1σ of the mean?
Why: Correct answer: A — 68% (68.27% exactly). Topic: Stats — Normal.
