- In the past, it was common practice to connect the lighting and receptacle(s) in a bathroom to the same circuit. Because of overloads caused by high-wattage grooming appliances, the Code now requires that these receptacle(s) be supplied by a separate 20-ampere branch circuit. Where in the Code is this requirement found? NEC __________arrow_forwardIf a residence has two bathrooms, the Code states: a. The receptacles in each bathroom must be connected to a separate 20-ampere branch circuit. For two bathrooms, this would mean two circuits. (True) (False) (Circle the correct answer.) b. The receptacles in both bathrooms are permitted to be served by the same 20-ampere branch circuit. (True) (False) (Circle the correct answer.)arrow_forwardAll electrical components have some sort of withstand rating. The NEC and UL Standards refer to this as the components short-circuit current rating. This rating indicates the ability of the component to withstand a specified amount of fault current for the time it takes the overcurrent device upstream of the component to open the circuit. NEC _____ refers to short-circuit current rating.arrow_forward
