Below is a small sample of our exam prep questions:

  1. What would be the calculated minimum size feeder circuit conductors for Multiple Motors on the same feeder given the following conditions? 208 volts three-phase induction-type squirrel cage motors, Motor_1 is 25 HP, Motor_2 is 20 HP, using Type THW copper wire.
    • Step_1: Table 430.250 lists the FLC at 74.8 amperes, and 59.4 amperes respectively.
    • Step_2: Per 430.24, multiple motors are calculated at 125% of the largest motor, in addition to the remaining motors FLC ratings. So calculate; 74.8 amperes x 1.25 = 93.5 A + 59.4 A = 152.9 amperes total load on the feeder.
    • Step_3: Table 310.16 slide down the THW (75 deg C) column to size up to 175 A, then slide to the left to size the 2/0 AWG feeder circuit conductors.
  2. How many 20A lighting circuits are required for the following dwelling?
    • Square Footage: 2,800 sq-ft (Outside Dimensions: 40 ft x 70 ft)
    • Operating Voltage: 120/240 V single-phase
    • Air Conditioning: 5,000 VA
    • Electric Heating: 10,000 VA
    • Other Appliances: 15,000 VA
      • Step_1: Calculate the maximum load on 20A circuit. P = I x E = 20 amperes x 120 volts = 2,400 VA.
      • Step_2: Understand that each 20A lighting circuit can only be loaded to 80% of capacity. Therefore, 2,400 VA x 0.8 = 1,920 VA maximum per circuit.
      • Step_3: Per NEC Article 220.12 (J) calculate the total lighting load; 3 VA/sq-ft x (40 ft x 70 ft) = 8,400 VA
      • Step_4: Calculate the number of 20A circuits required; 8,400 VA total / 1,920 VA max per circuit = 4.375 circuits.
      • Step_5: Five (5) circuits are required.
  3. According to the NFPA 72, in high air movement areas, the smoke detector spacing shall be reduced. This location and spacing guidance is intended for early warning of fire. Therefore, what would be the required spacing per detector if the air changes per hour were designed at 15?
    • NFPA 72 – Table 17.7.6.3.3.2, Figure 17.7.6.3.3.2. 500 sq-ft.
