1
A device used to divide power and protect branch circuits from overloads and short circuits is called a loadcenter.
2
Serves as a protective barrier to prevent contact with energized ('hot') parts within the unit.
3
Feed-Through Lugs are a set of terminals in a service entrance panel where feeder cables to a distribution panel are connected.
4
A 240-volt circuit typically consists of four wires. They are:
5
On a Main Lug Only loadcenter, turning one of the branch circuit breakers to the OFF position, will stop power flow to the bus bars and other branch circuit breakers.
6
Regardless of ampere ratings, a "Lighting and Appliance" type of loadcenter is limited to 42 circuits in one enclosure.
7
Most homes have ______ amp service, and a 120/240V, single-phase, three-wire system.
8
The power to a _________________ usually comes from a branch circuit breaker in the service entrance panel.
9
For safety reasons, the National Electrical Code (NEC) requires the service entrance panel's neutral to be grounded. Any downstream panels have their neutral _______ and _______.
10
Serves as an extension of the incoming power cables (main service conductors) and provides a means of affixing branch circuit breakers.
11
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 ________.
12
A NEMA Type 1 enclosure:
13
Half size branch circuit breakers are designed to take up only half as much space in a loadcenter as a normal circuit breaker, but cannot just be installed 2 for 1 in any loadcenter.
14
The term used to describe a loadcenter used at the point where the power enters the building is a ____________.
15
The ____________ is where the main upstream circuit protection device has an interrupting rating equal to or greater than the available fault current of the system and downstream devices have lower ratings.
16
Flush mounting is usually applied in industrial applications where the loadcenter is attached to and projects from the wall.
17
Main service conductors (Mains) bring electricity into a building from the power source.
18
A commercial/industrial service entrance panel is supplied with the same power system as a residential panel.
19
Double-pole circuit breakers plug-in to ______ stab(s) and feed ______ volts.
20
A residential service entrance panel is typically used to supply lighting, receptacles and appliances in a home.
