QUESTION 3
We are running 3 wires and a ground in a RMC to a control panel with a 60 amp circuit breaker disconnect in the control panel. The conduit is run along the ceiling where the ambient air temperature is 100 degrees. The control panel feeds our secondary cooling pump. What size are the ungrounded conductors? All conductors have typeTHHN insulation.
To testing installation of grounds, the usual procedure is to connect one lead of the megohmmeter to one of the conductors, then the other lead is___.
A, connected to another conductor b, connected to the conduit or raceway c. Connected to a special grounding electrode on the megohmmeter d. Left unconnected
