True
False
13
A device used to divide power and protect branch circuits from overloads and short circuits is called a loadcenter.
True
False
14
One reason for the intentional grounding of electrical equipment is to lower the impedance of the ground path. In the event of a fault, this serves to ________ the current, allowing the overcurrent device to open ________.
