NCCER Electrical Module 11- Test
Questions & Answers
Appliances Correct Ans-Equipment designed for a particular purpose (for example, using
electricity to produce heat, light, or mechanical motion) Appliances are usually self-contained,
are generally available for applications other than industrial use, and are normally produced in
standard sizes or types.
Bonding bushing Correct Ans-A special conduit bushing equipped with a conductor terminal
to accept a bonding jumper. It also has a screw or other sharp device to bite into the enclosure
wall to bond the conduit to the enclosure without a jumper when there are no concentric
knockouts left in the wall of the enclosure.
Bonding jumper Correct Ans-A bare or green insulated conductor used to ensure the required
electrical conductivity between metal parts required to be electrically connected. Bonding
jumpers are frequently used from a bonding bushing to the service-equipment enclosure to
provide a path around concentric knockouts in an enclosure wall, and they may also be used to
bond one raceway to another.
Branch circuit Correct Ans-The portion of a wiring system extending beyond the final
overcurrent device protecting a circuit
Feeder Correct Ans-A circuit, such as conductors in conduit or a cable run, that carries current
from the service equipment to a subpanel or a branch circuit panel or to some point in the wiring
system
