Pregunta 1
Pregunta
Why is it important to cycle the furnace on and off several times when replacing a sequencer?
Respuesta
-
It is important to make sure the heating elements and the blower are switching on and off in the correct cycle.
-
It is important to make sure the heating elements and the blower are turning on at the same time.
-
It is important to make sure the power is working correctly.
-
It is important to make sure that only the heating elements are coming on and not the blower.

The two general types of sequencers used on electric furnaces are
Respuesta
-
High current sequencers and low current sequencers
-
Fast acting sequencers and slow acting sequencers
-
Mechanical and electronic
-
Individual time delay relays and all-in-one sequencers that control all the strips and the blower motor
Pregunta 5
Pregunta
The most effective method of checking the heating elements of an electric furnace during operation is
Respuesta
-
A visual inspection
-
Checking the Amp draw of each heat strip
-
Measuring the temperature of each heat strip
-
Checking the resistance of each heat strip
Pregunta 6
Pregunta
What is the purpose of the white ceramic pieces on the strip heaters?
Respuesta
-
They insulate the heater wire from the metal frame supporting it
-
They make it easier to identify where the heat strips are installed
-
They concentrate the heat of the strips
-
They seal the heat produced by the strips inside the furnace
Pregunta 7
Pregunta
An electric furnace that runs continuously, regardless of the thermostat setting probably has
Respuesta
-
An open strip heater
-
An open fusible link
-
A bad transformer
-
A stuck sequencer
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
If a voltmeter shows a reading of 240 volts across the thermal limit to a strip heater on an electric furnace
Respuesta
-
The limit is closed, breaking the circuit to the heater
-
The limit is open, breaking the circuit to the heater
-
The limit is open, completing the circuit to the heater
-
The limit is closed, completing the circuit to the heater
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
Whenever a thermal limit or fusible link needs replacing, the technician should always check
Respuesta
-
The power wire for voltage drop
-
The transformer control voltage
-
The thermostat calibration
-
The air filter and airflow
Pregunta 10
Pregunta
Overheating can cause a terminal to discolor or the wiring insulation to melt. What should you consider when repairing the wire or the terminal?
Respuesta
-
Replace the terminal end only. It is okay to cut off the end and repair the wire. If the terminal is on a relay, sequencer or fuse block, the component should also be replaced in addition to the wire.
-
Replace the terminal end only. It is okay to cut off the end and repair the wire. If the terminal is on a relay, sequencer or fuse block, only the wire needs to be replaced. The component does not need to be replaced.
-
It is recommended to replace the entire wire with another wire of the same or larger gauge. If the terminal is on a relay, sequencer, or fuse block, the component should also be replaced in addition to the wire.

Pregunta 11
Pregunta
Given the following readings from an electric furnace, use the formula to calculate airflow.
CFM = (V x A x 3.412)/(∆T x 1.08)
What is the airflow in CFM and does this furnace have the recommended air flow?
Voltage at strips = 240 V
Amp draw of strips = 22.6 A
Return-air temperature = 65 ºF
Supply-air temperature = 120 ºF
Respuesta
-
The airflow is 336 CFM; No, the air flow is too low.
-
The air flow is 312 CFM; No, the air flow is too low.
-
The air flow is 312 CFM; Yes, the air flow is at the recommended level.
-
The air flow is 336 CFM; Yes, the air flow is at the recommended level.
Pregunta 12
Pregunta
A technician finds that a wire in an electric furnace is brittle and discolored from overheating. The technician should
Respuesta
-
Cut off the overheated end, strip the remaining wire end, and reinstall it
-
Cut off the overheated end and splice on a short length of similar wire using high quality electrical tape
-
Replace the entire wire
-
Cut off the overheated end and add a short length of similar wire using a wire nut
Pregunta 13
Pregunta
A technician takes the following readings while checking the operation of an electric furnace with 2 heat strips: 220 volts, 36 amps, 70ºF return air temperature, and 120ºF supply air temperature. What is the airflow through the furnace?
Respuesta
-
(120 - 70) x 1.08 x 10 = 540 CFM
-
(220 x 36 x 3.41)/(120 - 70) = 27,002/50 = 540 CFM
-
(220 x 36)/(120 - 70) = 7,920/50 = 158 CFM
-
(220 x 36 x 3.41)/((120 - 70) x 1.08)) = 27,002/54 = 500 CFM
Pregunta 14
Pregunta
When replacing a transformer, the technician should always check
Respuesta
-
The 24 volt control circuit for shorts
-
The air filter and airflow
-
The temperature rise across the furnace
-
The continuity of the electric strip heaters
Pregunta 15
Pregunta
What problems can be caused by overlubricating a blower motor?
Respuesta
-
This could eventually cause the motor windings to short out.
-
The motor would run more effectively with the extra lubrication.
-
It is not possible to overlubricate the motor.
-
The blower motor could run faster than specifications recommend.
