2026 Verified Exam for NFPA 70E
Accessible (as applied to equipment) - CORRECT ANSWER-Admitting close approach;
not guarded by locked doors, elevation, or other effective means.
Accessible (as applied to wiring methods) - CORRECT ANSWER-Capable of being
removed or exposed without damaging the building structure or finish or not
permanently closed in by the structure or finish of the building.
Accessible, Readily (Readily Accessible) - CORRECT ANSWER-Capable of being
reached quickly for operation, renewal, or inspections without requiring those to whom
ready access is requisite to take actions such as to use tools (other than keys), to climb
over or under, to remove obstacles, or to resort to portable ladders, and so forth.
Arc Flash Hazard - CORRECT ANSWER-A source of possible injury or damage to
health associated with the release of energy caused by an electric arc.
What elements increase the likelihood of an arc flash incident? - CORRECT
ANSWERWhen energized electrical conductors or circuit parts are exposed or when
they are within equipment in a guarded or enclosed condition, provided a person is
interacting with the equipment in such a manner that could cause an electric arc.
Arc Flash Suit - CORRECT ANSWER-A complete arc-rated clothing and equipment
system that covers the entire body, except for the hands and feet.
Arc Rating - CORRECT ANSWER-The value attributed to materials that describes their
performance to exposure to an electrical arc discharge. This is expressed in cal/cm2
and is derived from the determined value of the arc thermal performance value or
energy of breakopen threshold.
How is arc rating reported? - CORRECT ANSWER-ATPV (arc thermal performance
value) or Ebt (energy of breakopen threshold), whichever is the lower value.
Attachment Plug (Plug Cap) - CORRECT ANSWER-A device that, by insertion in a
receptacle, establishes a connection between the conductors of the attached flexible
cord and the conductors connected permanently to the receptacle.
Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) - CORRECT ANSWER-An organization, office, or
