In going through the Low Voltage workbook based on the 2005 NEC the following question appears on the final exam:
73. The ac ohms-to-neutral impedance per 1,000 ft of 4/0 AWG aluminum condctor in steel raceway is ____.
(a) 0.06 ohms
(b) 0.10 ohms
(c) 0.22 ohms
(d) 0.11 ohms
I say the answer is (b) 0.10 ohms based on Chapter 9, Table 9. I am referencing the steel conduit column under Alternating current resistance for aluminum wires and the 4/0 AWG size row. The second number in the the column is that for ohms ber 1000 feet which is 0.10. The Answer Key says the correct answer is (c) 0.22 ohms and that the answer is found in Chapter 9, Table 9.
I am trying to figure out where I went wrong with this question.
Thanks!
