SACA C201 ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS (ACTUAL
2025/2026) CERTIFICATION STUDY GUIDE
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
can you define and test a ground? - (answer)a ground is a point in the circuit that
is connected to the earth. you can use a multimeter-If the resistance is too high, it
may indicate that the ground connection is not providing adequate protection
electrical safety rules - (answer)1.Always use a circuit tester or voltage detector
to check that a circuit is de-energized before working on it.
electrical safety rule - (answer)Never touch electrical wiring or equipment with
wet hands or while standing on a wet surface.
electrical safety rule - (answer)Do not operate electrical equipment that is
damaged, frayed, or otherwise in poor condition.
electrical safety rule - (answer)Use the correct fuse or circuit breaker for the
circuit you are working on.
electrical safety rule - (answer)Never remove or bypass the grounding prong on a
plug.
Electrical Safety - (answer)Do not use extension cords or multiple outlet adapters
that are not rated for the equipment you are using.

electrical safety - (answer)Do not overload circuits by plugging in too many
devices or using high-powered equipment.
electrical safety - (answer)Do not use electrical equipment in wet or damp
conditions unless it is specifically designed for that purpose.
electrical safety - (answer)Use properly rated and properly installed surge
protectors for sensitive electronic equipment.
electrical safety - (answer)Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for using
electrical equipment.
purpose of lockout tag out - (answer)to prevent unexpected energization or
startup of machinery or equipment while it is being serviced or repaired.
state the two types of electrical current - (answer)AC and DC
how to use a circuit tester - (answer)To test a circuit, first locate the circuit
breaker or fuse that controls the circuit you want to test. Then, using the circuit
tester, touch the red probe to the live wire and the black probe to the neutral or
ground wire.
what is a power source - (answer)The power source is the source of electrical
energy for the circuit. It can be a battery, a generator, or a power outlet. The
power source provides the electrical current that flows through the circuit.
