1. A contractor wants to raise the 100 fpm/125 fpm= 12"/ X =15
car speed from 100 fpm to
125 fpm, it currently has a 12"
sheave. What is required?
2. A MOV (Metal Oxide Varistor) Replace it with a larger MOV - 630
burns out. You replace it, but
cannot read voltage or resis-
tance. What should you do?
3. On a Ward-Leonard circuit the Suicide Circuit - 425
brake is set, but the motor
is trying to slip through the
brake. What is the issue?
4. You have an old DC motor and Leave the interpoles alone. When adding a SCR drive to the
are adding an SCR drive, what generator, the series loop is removed, as are the 3 resistors.
do you do to the interpoles? Everything else remains the same
5. A hydro runs up with no load The relief valve is set too low - 815
but will not run with a full load.
What is the issue?
6. Runby for a 1:1 hits the CWT 22" - 235
buffer 4" below the top landing.
CWT runby should be set at 18".
How much should the ropes be
shortened?
7. You need to work on a freight Door Operator disconnect -535
door retiring cam, you LOTO
the main line but there is still

power on the cam. What circuit
is still hot?
8. The contractor requests that Adjust tie downs and wall ties - 850
the vertical center of a Rack and
Pinion hoist be moved. How do
you do this?
9. Working pressure on a Hydro is 400 x 150%= 600 PSI - 815
400 PSI. What is the maximum
relief valve setting?
10. What must be installed on a Spring Loaded safeties - 110
false care before operation?
11. There is slight arcing between None
the brush and commutator. Note: Heavy arcing= light brush pressure, Heavy brush pres-
What action must be taken? sure= mechanical wear
12. If rigging is roped 3:1 and a 18,000lbs -210
BEAM CLAMP is used to lift a
6,000lb load. What is the beam
capacity?
13. How much resistance is mea- .2 Ohms- should be zero but will never be that low
sured over a normally closed
switch?
14. A car traveling in the hoistway traveling cable has a cut/exposed wire or a short - 515
always stops at the same spot
and blows a fuse. What causes
this?

buffers, buffers should fully extend within 90 seconds.
Note: 5 yr is Full load, full speed - 555
16. How many strain supports are 4
required on a 350 ft raceway? 1 every 100ft - 505-510

les and what is the spacing? the diameter of the rope away from the shackle. - 245
19. A 300 ohm resistor burns out, 2- 600 ohms resistors in parallel is 300 ohms. Resistance is
but you dont have another one. half of the highest resistor in the parallel circuit. 3- 225 ohms
How can you make one? is 75 ohms. - 345
