I am preparing for my state licensing exam and need help with this project question;
A conductor contains 8 wires consisting of two 3-phase, 4 wire branch circuits serving fluorescent lighting that will operate for more than 3 hours. These circuits run thru an attic at a temperature of 120F. If each circuit is protected by a 20A OCPD Device, what size conduit, wire and insulation type is required?
It looks like without the actual load rating, I need to work backwards to the 20A OCPD. How do I go about doing that?
Thanks
Steve
