1. Which of the branch circuits uses grounding type receptacles?

Explanation

Grounding type receptacles are designed to provide a safe and reliable connection to the grounding system of a building. This helps to protect against electrical shock and provides a pathway for fault currents. Both 15 A and 20 A branch circuits can use grounding type receptacles because the amperage rating of the circuit does not determine the type of receptacle required. The choice of receptacle depends on the specific electrical needs of the appliances or devices being used on the circuit.
