d. 170 ft D = (Cmil x VD)/(2 x K x I) Cmil = 16,510 VD = 8.31V (277V x 0.03) K = 12.90 I = 31A D = (16,510 x 8.31)/(2 x 12.9 x 31) D = 118,872/806 D = 171.54 or approximately 170 ft

A 240/120-Volt panel has a load of 7,960 watts connected to line one and 3,420 watts connected toline two. Assuming all loads are 120-V, what is the current measured on the grounded conductor of thissystem? a. 45A b. 65A c. 19A d. 38A

d. 38A 7,960W - 3,420W = 4,540W4.540 ÷ 120V = 37.83Amperes

What is the MINIMUM size copper conductor needed for a sign located 350-feet from a panel tomaintain a 3% voltage drop? (Sign nameplate: 120V, 14 amperes.) a. 10 AWG b. 8 AWG c. 6 AWG d. 4 AWG

d. 4 AWG

What size resistor is necessary to limit the current flow to 0.47 amperes on a 24V circuit? a. 0.0196Ω b. 11.2Ω c. 24.47Ω d. 51Ω

d. 51Ω

What is the peak voltage of a 480 V RMS AC voltage? a. 391.68 b. 434.85 c. 576.45 d. 678.72

d. 678.72 480 volts x 1.414 = 678.72 volts

A 240V, 24A, single-phase load is located 160 ft from the panelboard. The load is wired with 10 AWG conductors. What's the approximate voltage drop of the branch-circuit conductors? a. 3.2V b. 4.25V c. 5.9V d. 9.5V

d. 9.5V VD = (2 x K x I x D)/Cmil K = 12.90, copper I = 24A D = 160 ft Cmil = 10,380 VD = (2 wires x 12.90 x 24A x 160 ft)/10,380 cmil VD = 9.50V
