QUESTION 3
We are running 3 wires and a ground in a RMC to a control panel with a 60 amp circuit breaker disconnect in the control panel. The conduit is run along the ceiling where the ambient air temperature is 100 degrees. The control panel feeds our secondary cooling pump. What size are the ungrounded conductors? All conductors have typeTHHN insulation.

- 6. when seeking to measure the voltage of an industrial power supply (600 Volts AC) an electrician needs to do the following to prepare the Simpson 260 meter for measurement (insert the words to make the following statements correct). a. Set the function switch to b. The black lead should be inserted in the jack. C. The red lead should be inserted in the jack. d. The range switch should be set to the position. Did you note the safety warnings in this section? Fairly significant, eh?! Nothing to mess around with!! 7. Why must you "zero" the meter (adjust it for zero (0)) when measuring resistance? 8. Describe the steps needed to accomplish the task of zeroing the meter. (4pts) For the following questions, refer to section 4.19 in the Simpson meter manual. 9. The Rx 1 resistance range is intended for resistances between and Ω. 10. The R x 100 range is intended for resistances between and Ω. 11.
