The system is 480Y/277-volt solidlygrounded wye. The building is still under construction, and a number of other tradesare working in the building. The switchboard has already been energized, and it istotally enclosed except for two access covers near the front bottom where the groundbus runs. The ground bus already has the proper number of and size of lugs for theequipment grounding conductors. You ask permission to turn off the main power sothat you can work on connecting the equipment grounding conductors to the groundbus without having to worry about accidentally touching the phase buses…arrow_forwardTo answer the question, type your answers in RED or paste the image of your handwriting solution Given the circuit #1 presented above, answer the following questions: Determine the value of the VD (voltage forward of the LED) for the LEDs RED, VDRED, GREEN, VDGREEN and BLUE, VDBLUE, when the current through the LEDs is 10mA, VDRED = ____________ ; VDGREEN = ____________ ; VDBLUE = ____________ Is the LED in Circuit #1, connected in the way that will be lighting up or not – Justify your answer Type your answer here Calculate the value of the resistance Rled in Circuit #1, to ensure that a RED LED will have a current of 10 mA Type your answer here or paste the image of your handwriting solution here Calculate the value of the resistance Rled in Circuit #1, to ensure that a GREEN LED will have a current of 10 mA Type your answer here or paste the image of your handwriting solution here Calculate the value of the resistance Rled in Circuit #1, to ensure that…arrow_forward
