Electrical Test / SurveyPlease complete test and survey below. Test is not graded or recorded and all comments are anonymous. The correct name for a live wire is _____________. The white wire The black wire A grounded conductor An ungrounded conductor What is the equation to find power if amps and volts are given? W = R/E E = W/I I = VxW W = IxE Which overhead service conductor clearance is correct? 9 feet above a rooftop garden 12 feet above a road 18 feet above a pool 22.5 feet over a road What does AWG stand for? Automated Wire Guide American Wire Gauge Named after Alfred W. Georg Nothing - named after Andre Awg Which statement is correct in relation to bonding. The bonding wire is white The neutrals and grounds should not be connected in the main service panel There should be a water bond on all residential properties Bonding provides continuity of the fault path current and aids in operation of the over-current protection device Which statement is correct in relation to grounding. The ground wire is the grounded conductor The grounding system provides a direct connection to the earth for lightning The grounding and ungrounded wires should be connected in the main panel In new construction only one connection to ground is required A main service disconnect _______ is not required as long as there is no more than 6 moves of the hand to turn off all the power of the home size is determined by adding up all the breakers and diving by 2 must also be GFCI protected will disconnect the electrical service from both the power company and the solar system Which breakers are considered problematic Choose all that apply Federal Pacific Square D blue button GFCI Cutler-hammer Stab-loc Knob and Tube Square D blue button AFCI Zinsco-Sylvania The main service panel _________ Is required to be inspected by removing the dead front panel Must at least be opened to view the main break size Should not be inspected if deemed unsafe is also referred to as the sub (or feeder) panel Aluminum Wiring can be corrected by; Rewiring with copper coated aluminum wires No correction needed Properly maintained aluminum wiring is always faulty should be evaluated and corrected by a qualified professional. What is the correct placement of outlets? One exterior outlet is required on the front and rear of the house An outlet is required on every wall and every 12 feet Outlet placement varies by age of the home and there is no universal placement guide. Every outlet located near a water source is required to be GFCI protected. A 12 AWG conductor should be connected to a 20amp breaker 15amp breaker No such thing as 12AWG Is for low voltage wiring and not connected to a breaker, but to a transformer. A 200amp Main Service Disconnect should be fed by a conductor no larger than 2/0AWG (copper) and 4/0 (Aluminum) a conductor no larger than 4/0AWG (copper) and 2/0 (Aluminum) a conductor at least 2/0AWG (copper) and 4/0 (Aluminum) a conductor at least 4/0AWG (copper) and 2/0 (Aluminum) A reversed polarity outlet is when the hot and neutral wires have been connected incorrectly (crossed) Is a reportable item, but is not a big problem because the outlet will still provide power. Is correctly wired Happens from time to time due to alternating current. In order, what are the official names for the Hot / Neutral / Ground Grounding / Grounded / Ungrounded Grounded / Ungrounded / Grounding Ungrounded / Grounded / Grounding Ungrounded / Grounding / Grounded None of the above How did you attend the class Optional In-person Online Prefer not to say Rate the class Content, layout, material 1, Couldn't get any worse 2 3 4 5, No improvements needed Rate the instructor Presentation, delivery, knowledge 1, Couldn't get any worse 2 3 4 5, Couldn't get any better Comments * Please provide some feed back.
