2. A facility manager replaces all the TS lights in an office when they have reached 80% of their
rated life of 20,000 hours. The lights operate for 12 hours each day, 5 days per week for 52
weeks of the year. What is the group re-lamping interval for these lights?
a.
3.7 years
b.
4.6 years
c. 5.1 years
d. 6.4 years
Question 3:
Suppose an engineer designed a fire alarm system for a large warehouse, with multiple
pushbutton switches connected to a single alarm siren:
Siren
Actuating any of the normally-open switches results in the alarm sounding. So far, so good.
Now, suppose that one of the wires connecting one side of several switches to the rest of
the circuit breaks open. What will the result of this failure be?
Siren
break!
