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.
