When a ground fault occurs, the OCPD will trip very quickly if the fault current has an effective ground-fault current path (a low-resistance return path) to take by way of the equipment grounding conductor. The lower this resistance, the faster the OCPD opens. Which of these ground-fault current return paths has the least (or lowest) resistance where run between two metal boxes? The copper equipment grounding conductor is bonded (or connected) to each box.

a 3/4" EMT with a 12 AWG copper equipment grounding conductor

both I & II

Usually, panelboards are constructed to have a depth that is ___ than that of a load center.

deeper

When a tripped breaker is found, you should ___.

determine the cause of the trip and correct it before resetting the breaker

If a circuit breaker trips, you should ___.

determine why it tripped before resetting the breaker

According to Ohm's Law, when all conduit fittings are tight and the equipment grounding conductors are bonded to each metal box, the total resistance of the ground-return path ___. Consequently, when a ground fault occurs, the overcurrent protective device (fuse or breaker) can open as quickly as possible because the fault current is as high as possible. HINT: I = E ÷ R
