In this paper, three Monte Carlo codes were tested for electron transport in various materials. MCNPX (version 2.4.0), Penelope (version 2003) and EGSnrc codes were used for modeling simple problems. These problems were focused on bremsstrahlung, energy deposition in matter, electron ranges and production of secondary electrons by gamma radiation. The electrons were primary particles, except in the last exercise, where photons were used. Various materials, e.g., water, lead and tungsten were used. The energy of the primary particles was within the energy range from 20 to 450 keV. The simulation results were compared with each other.
