Question
- which of the following types of outlets require gfci protection on construction sites?
a) 120 - volt, single - phase, 15 - and 20 - ampere outlets
b) 240 - volt outlets
c) only outlets used for power tools
d) all outlets that are part of the permanent wiring system
- flexible cords must be marked with their nec rating code every _____.
a) 10 feet
b) 3 feet
c) 6 inches
d) 1 foot
Question 4
To determine which outlets need GFCI protection on construction sites, we refer to electrical safety standards (e.g., NEC). 120 - volt, single - phase, 15 - and 20 - ampere outlets (used for general purposes like tools, temporary power) are required to have GFCI protection on construction sites. 240 - volt outlets (option b) don't have this specific requirement for all construction site use. Option c is incorrect as it's not just power tool outlets. Option d is incorrect as permanent wiring system outlets on construction sites (which are temporary use of permanent - like wiring) for 120V 15/20A need GFCI, not all permanent - part outlets.
According to NEC (National Electrical Code) standards, flexible cords must be marked with their NEC rating code every 3 feet. This is a standard requirement for identifying the cord's rating for safety and compliance.
