Q1.
A Class B FSR is reviewing an existing single-family dwelling where a homeowner
installed a 60 A subpanel fed from the main 200 A service. The subpanel is located in a
finished basement, and the feeder is a 6/3 NMD90 cable run through floor joists with holes
bored within 50 mm of the top edge. The inspector notes that the cable is unsupported for
a 1.2 m horizontal run between the last joist and the subpanel enclosure. Which Code rule
is most directly violated?


A. Rule 12-510 (support of cables within 300 B. Rule 4-024 (minimum size of conductors
mm of enclosures) for services)

C. Rule 8-106 (maximum demand for D. Rule 26-724 (protection of conductors in
subpanels) finished basements)
Correct: A - Rule 12-510 (support of cables within 300 mm of enclosures)


Rationale:Rule 12-510 requires that non-metallic sheathed cable be supported within 300
mm of every cabinet or box and at intervals not exceeding 1.5 m. A 1.2 m unsupported
horizontal run after the last joist violates the support requirement. The other rules address
conductor sizing, demand calculations, and protection, which are not the primary issue here.

Q2.
A Class B FSR is inspecting a newly installed 600 V, 3-phase, 4-wire feeder in a
commercial building. The feeder is protected by a 400 A circuit breaker. The calculated
load is 320 A, and the conductors are 350 kcmil copper with 75°C insulation, run in a
raceway with two other current-carrying conductors. The ambient temperature is 40°C.
Which of the following is the minimum acceptable ampacity for the conductors,
considering all correction factors?


A. 400 A B. 350 A

C. 320 A D. 355 A
Correct: D - 355 A

Canada Electrical FSR Class B Field Safety Representative Guide 2026/2027 Edition 180 CEC CODE BOOK WITH Rationales A University


Rationale: The 350 kcmil copper conductor at 75°C has a base ampacity of 310 A (from Table

2). With three current-carrying conductors, the adjustment factor is 0.88 (Table 5C), and with

40°C ambient, the correction factor is 0.88 (Table 5A). The corrected ampacity is 310 × 0.88 ×

0.88 = 240 A, which is far below the load. However, the question asks for the minimum

acceptable ampacity, which must be at least the load of 320 A and must also meet the

requirements of Rule 8-104 (conductors must have ampacity not less than the rating of the

overcurrent device, unless the next standard size is used). Since 350 kcmil is not adequate, a

larger conductor is needed. The correct minimum ampacity is the next standard overcurrent

device rating above the load, which is 350 A, but the question asks for the ampacity, so the

answer is 355 A (which is the next standard size above 320 A). The other options are

incorrect because they do not account for the required ampacity to be at least the load.


Q3.
A Class B FSR is assessing a temporary construction site where a 120/240 V single-phase
generator is used to supply power. The generator is rated 15 kW and is not bonded to a
grounding electrode. The FSR must ensure that the generator is connected in accordance
with the Canadian Electrical Code. Which of the following is a mandatory requirement?


A. The generator must have a grounded B. The generator must be grounded through
neutral conductor bonded to the frame. a grounding electrode.

C. The generator must be connected D. The generator must have ground-fault
through a transfer switch. circuit interrupters on all receptacles.
Correct: A - The generator must have a grounded neutral conductor bonded to the frame.


Rationale:Rule 10-204 requires that generators be grounded, and the neutral conductor must
be bonded to the generator frame. This ensures that the generator's system is properly
grounded. A grounding electrode is not always required if the generator is a separately
derived system and the bonding is done correctly. Transfer switches are required for
connecting to a premises wiring system, but not for a standalone generator. GFCIs are
required for certain receptacles, but not all.

Q4.
A Class B FSR is reviewing the installation of a 25 kVA, 600 V to 120/208 V transformer in a
commercial building. The transformer is protected on the primary side by a 50 A circuit
breaker. The secondary conductors are run to a distribution panelboard. According to the
CE Code, what is the maximum rating of the primary overcurrent device permitted without
additional secondary protection?


A. 125% of the primary rated current B. 150% of the primary rated current

C. 250% of the primary rated current D. 300% of the primary rated current
Correct: A - 125% of the primary rated current
