EMC fundamentals - foundation for all other EMC exams. I'm not the orignal author. I've merely taken what was available on the internet and put it up on this website for flash card use. I may add to it from time to time and grow it. Or users can email me questions to add to it. USE at your own risk. . . IF YOU EVEN THINK an answer is incorrect - LOOK IT UP. . . In your book. This practice test is about learning the material and not remembering question and answer responses. Understand expecially the math calc problems.
