10 Questions
A grounding electrode conductor is a conductive object that establishes a direct electrical connection to the earth.
False
The equipment grounding conductor is intentionally grounded to provide a path for misdirected current and protect people and equipment from electrical faults.
True
Circuits That Cannot Be Grounded are essential for improving the overall operation of the electrical system.
False
The grounding electrode conductor is also known as GEC.
True
The equipment grounding conductor is commonly referred to as EGG.
False
Bonding involves separating all exposed conductive items to prevent electric shock.
False
Systems must be floatingly grounded to limit the voltage to ground during normal operation.
False
The grounding electrode conductor, equipment bonding jumper, and equipment grounding conductor are not required to be adequately sized according to NEC Section 250.4(A)(5).
False
In a high-impedance grounded system, the path to ground must have sufficiently low impedance to facilitate the operation of protective devices.
True
A short circuit can only occur between phase conductors, and it never involves the grounded neutral conductor.
False
This short course provides an overview of electrical grounding and bonding systems. It explains the importance of grounding in protecting people and equipment from electrical faults, limiting voltage, and improving overall system operation.
