The wording that I am running into with questions such as "The number of conductors required to be installed between three-way and four-way switches is " is confusing. The text is not expalining this in a way that I am understanding anything other than grounding conductor, which is optional unless I am using a metal box. So what type of "conductor" is beng discussed?
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.
To testing installation of grounds, the usual procedure is to connect one lead of the megohmmeter to one of the conductors, then the other lead is___.
A, connected to another conductor b, connected to the conduit or raceway c. Connected to a special grounding electrode on the megohmmeter d. Left unconnected
