A. NFPA 70Explanation
The correct answer is NFPA 70 because it is one of the applicable codes and standards that dictate the control of egress. This means that the requirements for controlling the movement of people out of a building in case of an emergency, such as the placement and operation of exit doors and emergency lighting, should comply with the guidelines set forth in NFPA 70. The other options, such as the manufacturer's specifications, the security requirements of the building, and the occupancy and usage of the facility, may also play a role in determining the specific control measures, but NFPA 70 is the primary code to follow.Rate this question:

What measurement is used to test for conductivity of a circuit?
-
Current
-
Continuity
-
Wattage
-
Voltage
Correct Answer
A. ContinuityExplanation
Continuity is used to test for conductivity in a circuit. Continuity refers to the uninterrupted flow of current in a circuit. By testing for continuity, we can determine if there is a complete path for the current to flow, indicating that the circuit is conductive. This is typically done using a multimeter or a continuity tester, which checks if there is a complete connection between two points in the circuit. If there is continuity, it means that the circuit is conductive and the current can flow freely.Rate this question:
