Ampacity - Accurate Answers✔✔✔ The maximum current, in amperes,
that a conductor can carry continuously under the conditions of use
without exceeding its temperature rating.
Bonded (Bonding) - Accurate Answers✔✔✔ Connected to establish
electrical continuity and conductivity.
Bonding Jumper, Main - Accurate Answers✔✔✔ The connection
between the grounded circuit conductor and the equipment grounding
conductor at the service.
Disconnecting Means - Accurate Answers✔✔✔ A device (or group) by
which the conductors of a circuit can be disconnected from their source.
Effective Ground-Fault Current Path - Accurate Answers✔✔✔
Intentionally constructed, low-impedance path intended to carry current
under ground-fault conditions from the point of s ground-fault in the
system to the electrical supply source that facilitates the operation of the
overcurrent device(s) of ground fault detectors on high-impedance
grounded systems.
, Equipment - Accurate Answers✔✔✔ General term: fittings, devices,
appliances, luminaries, apparatus, machinery, ect. in connection with an
electrical installation.
Equipment Grounding Conductor (EGC) - Accurate Answers✔✔✔ The
conductive path(s) installed to connect normally non-current carrying
metal parts of equipment together and to the system grounded conductor
to the grounding electrode conductor, or both.
Grounded (grounding) - Accurate Answers✔✔✔ Connected to a ground
or a conductive body that extends to the ground connection.
