1. A single-family dwelling unit has a floor area of
1,800 square feet. What is the minimum
number of 20-ampere branch circuits required
to serve the lighting and general-use
receptacles?
A) 2
B) 3
, C) 4
D) 5
B) 3
Rationale: The general lighting load is
calculated at 3 VA per square foot. 1,800 sq ft x
3 VA = 5,400 VA. Dividing by 120 volts gives 45
amperes. Dividing by 20 amperes per circuit
gives 2.25, which must be rounded up to 3
circuits.
2. In a residential bathroom, a receptacle outlet is
installed 20 inches from the outside edge of a
bathtub. Which of the following is required?
A) The receptacle must be on a dedicated
circuit.
B) The receptacle must be GFCI protected.
C) The receptacle must be AFCI protected only.
D) The receptacle is not permitted in this
location.
B) The receptacle must be GFCI protected.
Rationale: All 125-volt, 15- and 20-ampere
, receptacles installed in bathrooms must have
ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection for
personnel, regardless of their distance from the
tub.
3. What is the minimum working space width
required in front of electrical equipment that is
30 inches wide?
A) 24 inches
B) 30 inches
C) 36 inches
D) 48 inches
B) 30 inches
Rationale: The working space width must be a
minimum of 30 inches or the width of the
equipment, whichever is greater. Since the
equipment is 30 inches wide, the minimum
width is 30 inches.
4. A contractor is installing a feeder to a detached
garage. The feeder will supply a 60-ampere
subpanel. What is the minimum size copper
, equipment grounding conductor required?
A) 10 AWG
B) 8 AWG
C) 6 AWG
D) 4 AWG
A) 10 AWG
Rationale: According to Table 250.122, a
copper equipment grounding conductor for a
60-ampere overcurrent protective device must
be no smaller than 10 AWG.
5. Which of the following locations requires
ground-fault circuit-interrupter protection for
125-volt, 15- and 20-ampere receptacles?
A) A receptacle in a finished basement of a
dwelling
B) A receptacle on the roof of a commercial
building for servicing HVAC equipment
C) A receptacle in a master bedroom of a
dwelling
D) A receptacle in a commercial kitchen for a
