Overheating can cause a terminal to discolor or the wiring insulation to melt. What should you consider when repairing the wire or the terminal?

Selecione uma das seguintes:

  • 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.

  • 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, only the wire needs to be replaced. The component does not need to be replaced.

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

Selecione uma das seguintes:

  • 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.

A technician finds that a wire in an electric furnace is brittle and discolored from overheating. The technician should

Selecione uma das seguintes:

  • 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

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?

Selecione uma das seguintes:

  • (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
