1. Type THHN / THWN / THW / TW Cable is intended for general purpose applications as defined by the National
Electrical Code (NEC)Type THHN-THWN-2 is permitted for new construction or rewiring for 60 volt
applications. Applications requiring Type THHN or THWN.
a. THHN wire: It indicates a single or stranded conductor having flame-retardant and heat-resistant
thermoplastic insulation with a jacket of extruded nylon or equivalent material. The wire is rated 90°C
dry only.THHN cable may also be used for wiring of machine tools, control circuits or on certain
appliances.
b. THWN wire: It Indicates a single conductor having flame-retardant, moisture and heat-resistant
thermoplastic insulation with a jacket of extruded nylon or equivalent material. The wire is rated 75°C
wet or dry. THWN cable is typically used for installation in conduit, machine tools, controlled circuits,
or other general purpose wiring.
c. THW wire– Indicates a single conductor having flame-retardant, moisture and heat-resistant
thermoplastic insulation. The wire is rated 75°C wet or dry. THW cable and wires are used generally in
building wiring, feeder and branch circuits, and internal secondary industrial distribution.
d. TW wire– Indicates a single conductor having flame-retardant, moisture-resistant thermoplastic
insulation. The wire is rated 60°C wet or dry.TW cable and wires are used generally in building wiring,
feeder and branch circuits, and internal secondary industrial distribution.
2. The conductor is appropriate for use in wet or dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°C or not to
exceed 75°C in oil or coolants. Applications requiring Type MTW conductor is appropriate for use in dry
locations at 90°C, or not to exceed 60°C in wet locations or where exposed to oils or coolants. Applications
requiring Type AWM conductor is appropriate for use at temperatures to not exceed 105°C in dry locations.
5. Measuring the energy consumption.
* Kilowatt Hour Meter or KWH Meter
6. When to do when we see a floating grounding wire is tap to neutral line.
* Disconnect then connect to neutral bus.
7. Equipment grounding importance.
* For equipment safety as well as personal safety
8. Apparatus not coincides to specification
* Do not install, refer to supervisor
9. Bend allowed by PEC
* not more than 3 – 90degrees bend
* use pull boxes to correct
10. PEC – RCCB
RCCB – Residual Current Circuit Breaker *mandatory in kitchen, bathroom & laundry areas
11. RCCB Rating Time
* 0.0025 seconds
12. Minimum wire size for Service Entrance
* 8.0mm² size
13. Protection for 5.5mm² wire.
* 30 Amperes
14. Sprinkler System at what standard
* Building height is 15 meters standard
15. Service entrance conduits / different types of electrical conduits
* RSC – Rigid Steel Conduit
* RMC – Rigid Metal Conduit
* IMC – Intermediate Metal Conduit is a steel tubing heavier than EMT but lighter than RMC
* EMT – Electrical Metallic Tubing it is lighter and less cost (GRC-Galvanized Rigid Conduit)
Type 1 – Rigid Non-Metallic Conduit – PVC
Type 2 – RMC/RSC
Type 3 – IMC
Type 4 – GRC
Type 5 – EMT
Type 6 – FMC (Flexible Metal Conduit)
16. Maximum distance from Junction Box before install of clamp.
* 90cm / 0.9m / 900mm
17. What to do when wire without continuity.
* Check the installation or open circuit
18. What to do in a warming wire.
* Check for loose connections on terminals
19. Why is house keeping in workplace is important.
* To keep the place presentable and safe for workers
20. VOM setting when taking AC Voltage
* select the highest setting of VOM or Volt Ohm Meter
21. What to do when lighting heavy equipment and other heavy materials
* use Hand Gloves / Safety Shoes to protect ourselves from potential hazards
22. What to do when conduit is not in specification
* refer to supervisor
23. What to do when work not conforming the drawing
* use your common sense and consult the supervisor
24. PEC Standard
* CO – 300mm / 1foot / 12in from FF (Finished Floor)
* Switches – 1500mm / 1.5meter / 50cm from FF (Finished Floor)
25. PEC to bend procedure
* conduit shall not be injured and the internal diameter is not reduced
* HIKI Bender
26. Primary General Used of PEC
* for SAFETY PURPOSE
* to establish basic material quality and safe work standard
27. Is wiring automobile or aircraft covered by PEC
* no, they are governed by different/other code
28. Given the option of panelboard best location
* is should be located at readily accessible location
29. Wire cut short, is it advisable inside raceway.
* no, because of safety
30. Client to convenience outlet
* yes, any alteration or changes in wiring requires wiring permit
31. Expose conduit not threaded fit
* the exposed thread will easily corrode
32. Rapid Start & Free Heat Start
* Rapid Start – does not require a starter
* Free Heat – use of bimetallic starter
33. Rule of Ballast in Lighting Fixture
* current limiter / regulator
