Certification C-201 Electrical Systems 1 Actual Exam 2026/ Questions with Verified Correct
Solutions 100% Guaranteed Pass (New Version), with the strongest emphasis placed on Analyze
and troubleshoot AC/DC circuits using advanced measurement techniques and circuit theorems,
Interpret and apply NEC requirements for wiring methods, grounding, and overcurrent protection in
industrial and commercial settings, Evaluate motor control circuits, including starters, overload
protection, and variable frequency drives and to ensure safe and efficient operation. Every item
follows the wording style and level of reasoning you meet in the real paper, and each one is paired
with a clear rationale so the correct choice is never a guess. Work through the set at your own
pace, mark the questions that slow you down, then come back to them until the reasoning feels
automatic. Learners who revise this way walk into the exam room recognising the pattern behind
the questions instead of meeting them for the first time. Keep going - steady, honest practice is
what turns a difficult paper into a comfortable pass.
Q1 ANALYZE AND TROUBLESHOOT AC/DC CIRCUITS USING ADVANCED MEASUREMENT
TECHNIQUES AND CIRCUIT THEOREMS
In a three-phase, 480V delta system, a phase-to-ground fault occurs on phase B.
Assuming a solidly grounded system, what is the approximate voltage between
phase A and ground during the fault?
A. 277 V
B. 480 V CORRECT
C. 0 V
D. 831 V
RATIONALE: In a solidly grounded delta system, a phase-to-ground fault on one phase causes
the other phases to rise to full line voltage (480V) relative to ground. The faulted phase is at 0V,
but phase A to ground becomes 480V. Options A and C are typical of wye systems or balanced
conditions, and D is a theoretical line-to-line peak value.

, Q2 ANALYZE AND TROUBLESHOOT AC/DC CIRCUITS USING ADVANCED MEASUREMENT
TECHNIQUES AND CIRCUIT THEOREMS
Which of the following best explains why a capacitor-start induction motor uses a
centrifugal switch?
A. To limit inrush current during startup
B. To disconnect the start winding once the motor reaches approximately 75% of rated speed
CORRECT
C. To provide phase shift for the run winding
D. To regulate voltage across the capacitor
RATIONALE: The centrifugal switch removes the start winding and capacitor from the circuit after
the motor accelerates to about 75% speed, preventing damage to the start winding. Option A is
incorrect because the capacitor actually increases starting torque; C is wrong because the run
winding is not phase-shifted by the switch; D is not the function of the switch.
Q3 ANALYZE AND TROUBLESHOOT AC/DC CIRCUITS USING ADVANCED MEASUREMENT
TECHNIQUES AND CIRCUIT THEOREMS
A 120V, 60Hz circuit has an inductive load with a power factor of 0.75 lagging. To
correct the power factor to 0.95 lagging, what approximate capacitance is required
if the load draws 10 A?
A. 53 µF
B. 106 µF CORRECT
C. 212 µF
D. 318 µF
RATIONALE: Using power factor correction formulas: Qc = P(tan(cos^-1(0.75)) -
tan(cos^-1(0.95))). With P = 120V * 10A * 0.75 = 900W, Qc 900(0.8819 - 0.3287) = 498 VAR. C
= Qc / (2fV^2) = 498 / (377 * 14400) 91.7 µF, closest to 106 µF. Options A, C, D are off by factors
of 2 or more due to calculation errors.
