CODE, STANDARDS, AND PRACTICES 2, LEVEL I-2020 LESSON 2: BRANCH CIRCUITS I TEST PRACTICE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 2025/2026 A branch circuit is defined as " The circuit conductors between the final overcurrent device protecting the circuit and the outlet(s) - ANS-True A feeder is defined in the NEC as " All circuit conductors between the service equipment, the source of a separately derived system, or other power supply source and the final branch circuit overcurrent device" - ANS-True A continuous load is where the maximum current is expected to continue for ? Or more - ANS-3 hours A branch circuit that supplies four lighting outlets and eight receptacle outlets would be classified as a(n) - ANS-General purpose branch circuit Which of the following would be classified as an individual branch circuit - ANS-A branch circuit consisting of one single receptacle for one appliance A multi wire branch circuit is defined in the NEC as" A branch circuit that consists of two or more grounded conductors that have a voltage between them, and an ungrounded conductor that has equal voltage between it and each grounded conductor of the circuit and that is connected to the neutral or grounded conductor of the system" - ANS-False Which of the following statements is/are true when applied to an appliance - ANS-No lighting is connected to an appliance branch circuit unless it is part of the appliance Because of a long circuit length, a branch circuit supplying parking lot lighting is installed using 10 AWG THW copper conductors. The conductors terminate on a 20-ampere circuit breaker. The rating of this branch circuit is ? . - Continues...
