Initial Verification Flashcards
When it comes to initial verification…
True or false:
The maximum demand must be known or be available.
True.
You need to know the hypothetical maximum load of an installation before beginning work on it.
When it comes to initial verification…
True or false:
You do not need to know the number of live supply conductors.
False.
You need to know the number of supply live conductors so that you are aware of any external supply, such as solar power.
When it comes to initial verification…
True or false:
You need to know the Earthing arrangements.
True.
You need to know what the earthing arrangement of the installation is, so that when you perform your Earth Fault Loop Impedance Test or the Zs value.
When it comes to initial verification…
True or false:
You don’t need to know the supply voltage, Ze, current etc.
False.
You need all of these things to perform pretty much all of your tests.
You weapon.
When it comes to initial verification…
True or false:
You need access to diagrams and information regarding the installation.
True.
Pretty self explanatory really.
When it comes to initial verification…
True or false:
You don’t need to pay attention to external issues, compatability or maintainability.
False.
You need to bear all of these things in mind, especially if you are working with an installation that uses the old wiring colour scheme, as well as the condition/ age of the insulating material, how easy to maintain the installation is, and how easy it is to actually access key components.
