Question 1: NEC section 220.61(B) allows a demand factor of
Answer:
70% for these two appliances.Question 2: Additional demand factors may be applied to the portion of the neutral load contributed by
Answer:
Electric ranges and the portion of the total neutral load greater than 200A.Question 3: If the number of current carrying conductors in the conduit or cable exceeds 3,
Answer:
The ampacity of the conductors must be adjusted using NEC 310.15(C)(1).Question 4: NEC section 220.44 permits both general purpose receptacles at 180VA per outlet and
Answer:
Fixed multi outlet assemblies to be adjusted for the demand factors given in NEC tables 220.42 and
220.44.
Question 5: Since the requirement for adding at least the first 60A of a load at the 100% demand factor is satisfied,
Answer:
The next 60A of the 87.5A from all the other loads are added at a 50%.
Question 6: The clothes dryer and electric range, however have
Answer:
120V lights that will unbalance the current between phases.Question 7: The demand factor does not apply to any area where the entire lighting is likely to be
Answer:
Used at one time, such as the dining room or a ballroom.
Question 8: For two or more motors connected to the same feeder conductors ,
Answer:
The rule is to compute the sum of all motors plus 25% of the largest motor.
Question 9: First 20,000 at
Answer:
60%.Question 10: Add 100% of the noncontinous loads and 125% of the continuous loads,
Answer:
then divide the result by the circuit voltage to find the current rating.
Question 11: Almost all secondary sides of transformers
Answer:
Are classified as tap conductors.Question 12: Use of the 100 foot tap rule is limited to installations in high bay manufacturing buildings with
Answer:
Wall heights over 35 feet.
Question 13: More than 6 units of kitchen equipment
Answer:
With a total connected load of 80kVA.
Question 14: Compute the floor area of the building using the
Answer:
Outside dimensions of the building.Question 15: NEC section 220.43(A) requires that the lighting load for show window feeders be calculated at
Answer:
200VA per linear foot of show window.Question 16: Feeder amapacity for single phase circuits is calculated by dividing VA by the circuit voltage.
Answer:
I = VA/V
Question 17: When the overcurrent protection for a conductor is located at the load end instead of at the supply conductor,
Answer:
The NEC generally considers that to be a tap.
Question 18: A dwelling unit has a unit lighting load
Answer:
Of 3VA per square foot.Question 19: The smallest sized locking and grounding type receptacle that may be used to provide shore power for boats is
Answer:
30A.
Question 20: Determine the general lighting load using NEC section 220.14(J)
Answer:
Multiply the resulting area in step 1 by the unit load for the dwelling unit.
Question 21: Feeder ampacity for balanced three phase circuits is calculated by diving VA by the product of the line to line circuit voltage and the square root of 3 (1.732)
Answer:
I = VA over V multiplied by 1.732.
