    When an ammeter is disconnected from an in-service current transformer, the secondary terminals of the current transformer must be _____________.

    • Shorted

    • Open

    • Option 3

    • Option 4

    Correct Answer
    A. Shorted
    Explanation
    When an ammeter is disconnected from an in-service current transformer, the secondary terminals of the current transformer must be shorted. This is because the current transformer is designed to step down the current flowing through the primary circuit and provide a proportional current in the secondary circuit. When the ammeter is disconnected, it creates an open circuit in the secondary circuit, which can lead to a dangerous voltage build-up. By shorting the secondary terminals, any residual current or induced voltage can safely flow through the short circuit, preventing any potential hazards.

    Reactance will cause the current in a circuit to vary only when ____________.

    • AC Current flows

    • DC Current flows

    • There is non resistance in the circuit

    • There is a resistance in the circuit

    Correct Answer
    A. AC Current flows
    Explanation
    Reactance is a property of an electrical circuit that resists the flow of alternating current (AC). Unlike resistance, which affects both AC and direct current (DC), reactance only comes into play when AC current flows. Reactance is caused by the presence of inductance or capacitance in the circuit, which can cause the current to vary in response to changes in voltage. Therefore, the correct answer is that reactance will cause the current in a circuit to vary only when AC current flows.

    Motors 1/3, 1/4, and 1/8 hp are connected parallel. Those motors deliver a total of ___________.

    • 1 hp

    • 7/8 hp

    • 17/24 hp

    • 0.07 hp

    Correct Answer
    A. 17/24 hp
    Explanation
    When motors are connected in parallel, their power outputs are added together. In this case, the motors have power ratings of 1/3, 1/4, and 1/8 hp. Adding these fractions together, we get a total power output of 17/24 hp.

    Flexible cords and cables shall not be used

    • For wiring of cranes and hoists

    • For prevention of the transmission of noise or vibration

    • To run through holes in floors

    • Simply to facilitate frequent interchange

    Correct Answer
    A. To run through holes in floors
    Explanation
    Flexible cords and cables should not be used to run through holes in floors. This is because flexible cords and cables are not designed to withstand the wear and tear that can occur when they are run through holes in floors. The constant movement and rubbing against the edges of the hole can cause damage to the cords and cables, increasing the risk of electrical hazards such as short circuits or exposed wires. Therefore, it is important to use appropriate wiring methods and materials that are specifically designed for running through holes in floors to ensure safety and prevent potential accidents.

    A fixture that weighs more than ______ shall be supported independently of the outlet box. 

    • 25 pounds

    • 30 pounds

    • 50 pounds

    • 75 pounds

    Correct Answer
    A. 50 pounds
    Explanation
    A fixture that weighs more than 50 pounds should be supported independently of the outlet box. This means that the fixture should not rely solely on the outlet box for support, as it may not be able to bear the weight of the fixture. The additional support ensures the safety and stability of the fixture, preventing any potential accidents or damage.

    The force which moves electrons from atom to atom through a closed conducting path is called ___________.

    • Flux

    • Resistance

    • Admittance

    • EMF

    Correct Answer
    A. EMF
    Explanation
    EMF stands for electromotive force, which is the force that moves electrons from atom to atom through a closed conducting path. It is responsible for the flow of electric current in a circuit. EMF can be generated by a battery or a power source and is measured in volts.

    An advantage of a 240-volt system compared with a 120-volt system of the same wattage is ________________.

    • Reduced voltage drop

    • Reduced power used

    • Large currents

    • Option 4

    Correct Answer
    A. Reduced voltage drop
    Explanation
    The advantage of a 240-volt system compared with a 120-volt system of the same wattage is reduced voltage drop. This means that the electrical current experiences less loss of voltage as it travels through the system, resulting in more efficient and reliable power transmission. With reduced voltage drop, the electrical devices connected to the system can operate at their intended voltage, ensuring optimal performance and minimizing the risk of damage or malfunction.
