Q1Domain Verified
When installing a standard duplex receptacle, what is the primary reason for ensuring the ground wire is connected to the green screw terminal and the grounding screw on the device's yoke?
To create a direct, low-resistance path to the electrical panel's grounding busbar in case of a short circuit.
To provide a neutral path for current in case of a fault.
To reinforce the mechanical stability of the receptacle within the electrical box.
To ensure the hot and neutral wires are properly polarized.
Q2Domain Verified
During the installation of a 3-way switch, if the traveler wires are inadvertently swapped at one of the switch locations, what will be the observable outcome when operating the switches?
The circuit breaker will immediately trip due to the wiring error.
One switch will operate the light correctly, while the other will be rendered inoperable or cause erratic behavior.
Both switches will operate independently, controlling the light from either location.
The light will remain on continuously, regardless of switch position.
Q3Domain Verified
When replacing an existing single-pole switch, you discover that the incoming hot wire is connected to the "common" terminal and the outgoing wire to the light fixture is connected to the other terminal on the switch. However, there is also a second hot wire in the box that is capped off with a wire nut. What is the most likely scenario and the correct action for replacing the switch?
The second hot wire is a redundant neutral, and it should be connected to the neutral wires.
The second hot wire is a "switched hot" for a separate fixture, and it should be connected to the remaining terminal on the single-pole switch.
The second hot wire is an "always hot" feed for a convenience outlet, and it should be connected to the "common" terminal alongside the existing hot wire.
The second hot wire is a "traveler" from a 3-way switch, and the existing switch should be replaced with a 3-way switch.
