Chapter 5, Problem 1R
The identified grounded circuit conductor must be _____ or _____ in color.
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Mention the color which is used to identify the grounded or neutral conductor.
Answer to Problem 1R
White or grey color is used to identify the grounded circuit conductor.
Explanation of Solution
Description:
The grounded conductor is also known as neutral conductor. In NEC, the AC (Alternating current) requires the conductor with outer finished containing three stripes. Generally, these three stripes will be in grey or white in color which is reserved only for the usage of neutral conductor.
Conclusion:
Thus, white or grey color is used to identify the grounded circuit conductor.

A wattmeter is connected with the positive lead on phase "a" of a three-phase system. The negative lead
is connected to phase "b". A separate wattmeter has the positive lead connected to phase "c". The
negative lead of this wattmeter is connected also to phase "b". If the input voltage is 208 volts line-to-
line, the phase sequence is "abc" and the load is 1200 ohm resistors connected in "Y", what is the
expected reading of each of the wattmeters? (Hint: draw a phasor diagram)
