The Code places a maximum open-circuit voltage on lighting equipment in oron homes. This maximum voltage is 600 750 1000. (Circle the correctanswer.) Where in the NEC is this voltage maximum referenced?
In order to wire a post light, a homeowner purchased some single-conductor cable that was marked as suitable for direct burial in the ground. A separate equipment grounding conductor to the post light was not carried. Instead, the bottom of the metal post, buried 2 ft (0.6 m) into the ground, was used as a ground for the post light. The inspector “red tagged” (turned down) the installation. Who is right—the homeowner or the electrical inspector?
Explain.
You are asked to replace an ungrounded receptacle (two wire) and there is not a source of ground available.
Is is permissible to replace the receptacle with a GFCI Receptacle?
If so, how must the receptacle plate be marked.
