What is the maximum temperature rating of Type XHHW insulation when used in a wet location?

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

To find:

The maximum temperature rating of an insulation of Type XHHW, when used in a wet location.

Answer to Problem 1RQ

The maximum temperature rating of a XHHW type insulation is 75 degrees Celsius or 167-degree Fahrenheit, when used in wet locations.

Explanation of Solution

According to National Electrical Code (NEC), the maximum temperature rating of a type XHHW insulation is 90oC(194oF) when used in dry locations. But when it is used in wet locations, the maximum temperature rating falls to 75oC(167oF).

Hence, we can say that the maximum temperature rating for a type XHHW insulation in wet conditions is 75oC(167oF).

.I need the correct answer, and if it's wrong, please fix it 7. The midrange voltage gain of an amplifier is 100. The input RC circuit has a lower critical frequency of 1 kHz. The actual voltage gain at f-100 Hz is 100. 10. In a high-pass filter, the roll-off region occurs above the critical frequency.
