Question
Chapter 13, Problem 1R
To determine
Mention the circuit that is connected to the living room.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1R
The living room is connected to the circuit B17.
Explanation of Solution
Discussion:
The feed for the lighting branch circuit of living room is connected to circuit B17 that originates at the main Panelboard B. The circuit B17 is a 15-ampere branch circuit that provides an overcurrent protection and an arc-fault protection using a 15-ampere arc-fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) circuit breaker in Panelboard B, as required by the NEC 210.12(A).
Conclusion:
Thus, the living room is connected to circuit B17.
