- You are an electrician working in an industrial plant. The company is constructing a maintenance shop located 225 feet from the main plant electrical system. You are to install a 400-ampere three-phase wire system in the new maintenance shop. The service is supplied by the existing plant service. The voltage is 480 volts and the voltage drop is to be kept at 3% or below at full load. The conductors are to be aluminum. Determine the wire size needed for the 400-ampere service in accordance with the National Electrical Code. Assume that the conductors have type THWH insulation. (Note: As a general rule, for each 100 feet of conductor length the wire size is increased one standard size because of voltage drop.)arrow_forwardWhat are the three project categories an electrical contractor may choose to browse?arrow_forwardPlease answer quickly. 17. The filament of incandescent lamp is usually made of: a. copper b. silver c. aluminum d. tungsten 18. A current measuring instrument can be modified to measure voltages by: a. using thicker wire in the coil b. using a high resistance shunt c. adding resistance in series d. adding resistance in parallel 21.

Circuit A. One lampholder and one duplex receptacle controlled by a Single Pole Switch. Circuit B. Single Pole Switch controlling the top half of a duplex receptacle that when energized, is indicated by a Pilot-light at the Single Pole Switch location; plus an Isolated Ground Duplex Receptacle that is always hot. Circuit C. The bottom half of the switched receptacle on Circuit ‘B’ is to be always hot; plus another Duplex Receptacle that is controlled from two locations using a Coast 3-Way wiring-system.arrow_forward
