Expert Solution & Answer

Answer to Problem 1R
The code that sets the standards for electrical installation work is NEC.
Explanation of Solution
Discussion:
The National Electrical Code (NEC) is the basic standard code and it sets the standards for electrical installation work. The NEC safeguards the persons and property from hazards during the usage of electricity.
The local and state electrical regulations and codes should also be considered along with the NEC for electrical installation work.
Conclusion:
Thus, the code that sets the standards for electrical installation work is NEC.

In a railway system with a power source of 600 VDC, I need to achieve a load output of 120 VDC for railway lights. I found a DC-DC converter capable of stepping down 600 VDC to 125 VDC. To obtain 120 VDC from this converter, we can use a voltage divider with the following equation: [R2/(R2+R1)]=120/125=0.96=0.96However, using resistors to achieve the desired output voltage raises some concerns. Is it advisable to use railway-grade resistors for this application? I found some resistors in the range of 1-10k ohms, but I am unsure how they should be connected in the circuit with the lights (the load to be used).
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions or schematic diagrams to clarify the best approach for connecting the resistors in this setup.
Find the valve of the voltage Vx using the THEVENIN
equivalent circuit and redo the problem with the
NORTON equivalent circuit. Show both the the vinen
and Norton circuits.
