I am baffled by the meaning and intent of Art 240.5 ---- Fixture Wires, (B), (2)Fixture Wire which reads------------
""Fixture wire shall be permitted to be tapped to the B-C (conductors as follows)"
"(2) 20 amp (B-C)----- #16 ( fixture wire)--- up to 100 ft. of run-lenth"
A description of an "example" installation that complies with the Art. may clarify the intent of the Art for me. Also ,a responce to these relevant questions----
#16 TFFN fixture wire is permitted to be tapped/connected to B-C conductors protected by a 20 amp breaker, and the fixture wire is permitted to be extended 100 ft. from the point of connection. T or F ?
The permissible load on the #16 fixture wire is a single luminaire only. ( not stated but implied?) T or F ?
The #16 fixture wires must be enclosed in an approved Wiring Method ( not stated but implied?) T or F ?
