EXAM 66 QUESTIONS
Question 1: Under the 2023 NEC, which article contains the general requirements for branch circuits not over 1,000 volts AC or 1,500 volts DC, nominal?
Choices:
1) Article 200 2) Article 210 3) Article 215 4) Article 225
Correct Answer: Article 210
Explanation: Article 210 covers general requirements for branch circuits within the stated voltage limits. NEC 210.1 identi�es the scope.Page 1
Question 2: An existing dwelling branch circuit is extended without adding any new outlets or devices other than splicing devices. What is the maximum extension length that can qualify for the AFCI exception in NEC 210.12(E)?
Choices:
1) 3 ft 2) 6 ft 3) 10 ft 4) 15 ft
Correct Answer: 6 ft
Explanation: The AFCI extension exception applies when the extension of existing branch-circuit conductors is not more than 6 ft and no additional outlets or devices are added except splicing devices.Question 3: Which branch circuits in guest rooms, guest suites, and patient sleeping rooms in nursing homes are generally required to have AFCI protection under NEC
210.12(D)?
Choices:
1) Only 15-ampere lighting circuits 2) All 120-volt single-phase 10-, 15-, and 20-ampere branch circuits 3) All circuits rated 277 volts or less 4) Only receptacle circuits serving sleeping areas Correct Answer: All 120-volt single-phase 10-, 15-, and 20-ampere branch circuits Explanation: NEC 210.12(D) applies AFCI protection to all 120-volt, single-phase, 10-, 15-, and 20- ampere branch circuits supplying the covered spaces.Page 2
Question 4: At the point where a multiwire branch circuit originates, the
disconnecting means must simultaneously disconnect which conductors?
Choices:
1) All grounded conductors 2) All equipment grounding conductors 3) All ungrounded conductors 4) Only the conductor with the highest load
Correct Answer: All ungrounded conductors
Explanation: NEC 210.4(B) requires a means that simultaneously disconnects all ungrounded conductors of the multiwire branch circuit at its origin.Question 5: Which installation is an example of a receptacle that can fall outside the dwelling-unit AFCI requirements when the applicable exception is satis�ed?
Choices:
1) A receptacle supplying a permanently installed �re alarm system 2) A bedroom convenience receptacle 3) A living-room television receptacle 4) A hallway receptacle Correct Answer: A receptacle supplying a permanently installed �re alarm system Explanation: The 2023 NEC includes an AFCI exception associated with permanently installed �re alarm systems when the stated conditions are met. Ordinary bedroom, living-room, and hallway receptacles do not receive that exception merely because of their location.Page 3
