Your ticket. Your future. We’ll help you get there.
Practice questions, timed mock exams and explanations for testing yourself before your power engineering exam. Learn each unit from the free NAIT, SAIT and BCIT textbooks (CC BY-NC-SA) or your course materials, then test yourself here.
SteamTicket is practice questions and timed mock exams for testing yourself. It is not a study guide or a textbook summary, so pair it with the free NAIT, SAIT or BCIT textbooks.
- 1. Read the unit in the free textbook. Free textbooks
- 2. Test yourself on that unit, with an explanation for each answer.
- 3. Sit a timed mock on a standard SOPEEC multiple-choice paper: 100 questions in 3 hours. 313A is 125 questions in 4 hours. 1st Class long-answer papers are not that mock.
5,546 practice questions across 5th–1st Class, organised by unit. For example, 4th Class Part A has 596 questions across 12 units.

STEAMTICKETPrepare for your power engineering ticket in three steps
Answer questions
Work through exam-style multiple-choice questions keyed to the public ABSA/SOPEEC syllabus. A worked explanation with every question.
SMART Quiz adapts
The engine builds every session from your results, weakest units first, spaced re-asks on questions you got wrong, stronger units revisited less often.
Take mock exams
For a standard SOPEEC multiple-choice paper, run a full 100-question, 3-hour mock. 1st Class papers A1 to A4 and B1 to B3 are long-answer, and 313A uses a 125-question, 4-hour Red Seal mock. See your score, review every answer, and sit again as many times as you like.

Why the SMART Quiz is different
Most flashcard apps let you flip through questions randomly. SteamTicket builds every study session from your own results.
↑ Weak units first
Units where you score below 70% get prioritised at the start of every session until your score climbs. No more spending time on topics you already know.
↻ Spaced re-asks
Questions you answered incorrectly come back in later sessions at increasing intervals. Correctly answered questions on strong units fade into background review.
📈 Progress you can see
A per-unit breakdown shows your running score across every attempt. Watch weak units move into the green as your knowledge solidifies.
🔒 Your data, your device
Progress is stored on-device first and synced when you log in. Once a course is open, the app keeps working if your signal drops mid-session. You need a connection to open a course.
Everything you need to prepare
5,546 original questions
Original, exam-style multiple choice written objective-by-objective to the public ABSA/SOPEEC syllabus: 5,546 across 8 power-engineering courses spanning 5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd & 1st Class, plus separate Refrigeration Plant Operator and Class A banks. A worked explanation on every question, not just an answer key.
Mock exams
Timed 100-question mock exams matching the real 3-hour SOPEEC format. Sit as many times as you like. Review mode after every attempt.
Works anywhere
Fully responsive web app: desktop, tablet, phone. Once a course is open it keeps working if your signal drops mid-session, so a dead zone on a job site or in a plant won't end your session (you need a connection to open a course).
Keyed to the syllabus, objective by objective
Every question carries its exact syllabus reference (AB-055 for 5th, AB-054 for 4th, AB-053 for 3rd, AB-052a for 2nd, AB-051a for 1st), word-for-word identical to the national SOPEEC reference syllabus. So every bank is valid in every SOPEEC province, and you always know precisely which objective you're drilling.
One-time purchase
Pay once, study forever. No subscription, no monthly fees. Lifetime access includes all future question-bank updates for the course you buy.
A refund, plus support if you don’t pass
Not right for you? Full refund within 30 days, no questions asked. Didn't pass after studying with us? Send your result and we'll keep your access open at no extra charge and help you target what to review, for as long as we offer your course.
