The largest size solid conductor generally permitted to be installed in a raceway is (10 AWG) (8 AWG) (6 AWG). (Circle the correct answer.)
Choose the correct answer for the largest size solid conductor that is permitted to be installed in a raceway.
Answer to Problem 1R
The correct answer for the largest size solid conductor that is permitted to be installed in a raceway is 10 AWG.
Explanation of Solution
Description:
According to the American Wire Gauge (AWG) standards, the copper and aluminium wires used in electrical installations are graded for specific size. A tube that is used to protect and route electrical wiring is called as electrical conduit. A closed conduit that forms a physical path for electrical wiring is called as a raceway.
Due to the flexibility and ease of handling and pulling, 10 AWG conductors are used in a raceway.
Conclusion:
Thus, the correct answer for the largest size solid conductor that is permitted to be installed in a raceway is 10 AWG.

A communication satellite is in stationary (synchronous) orbit about the carch (assume altitude of 22.300 statute miles). Its transmitter generates 8.0 W. Assume the transmit- ting antenna is isotropic. Its signal is received by the 210-ft diameter tracking parabo- loidal antenna on the earth at the NASA tracking station at Goldstone, California. Also assume no resistive loss in either antenna, perfect polarization match, and perfect impedance match at both antennas. At a frequency of 2 GHz, determine the: (a) power density (in watts/m²) incident on the receiving antenna. (b) power received by the ground-based antenna whose gain is 60 dB.arrow_forward
