Chapter 6, Problem 16R
Construction sites can be dangerous because of the manner in which extension cords, portable electrical tools, and other electrical equipment are used and abused. To reduce this hazard, 590.6(A) of the NEC requires that all 125-volt, single-phase, 15-, 20-, and 30-ampere receptacle outlets used for temporary wiring during construction must be _________________ protected.

Laboratory Preliminary Discussion First-order Low-pass RC Filter Analysis The first-order low-pass RC filter shown in figure 1 below represents all voltages and currents in the time domain. It is of course possible to solve for all circuit voltages using time domain differential equation techniques, but it is more efficient to convert the circuit to its s-domain equivalent as shown in figure 2 and apply Laplace transform techniques. vs(t) i₁(t) + R₁ ww V₁(t) 12(t) Lic(t) Vout(t) = V2(t) R₂ Vc(t) C Vc(t) VR2(t) = V2(t) + Vs(s) Figure 1: A first-order low-pass RC filter represented in the time domain.
