Lighting circut

[Colby J]

I saw this question on my exam asking what type of heating equipment is allowed on a lighting circut having trouble finding any information about that.

422.48(A) is the best I can do this morning.

What is the definition of a lighting circuit? I cannot find that anywhere in the NEC.

Good point. I'd like to know the exact verbiage of the question.

I would think it was in reference to 210.23 with then possible answer of 80%

I thought about that section too but I'm not getting from there as to the "what type of heating equipment is allowed on a lighting circuit". Does the NEC mention any specific type of heater that is allowed on a lighting circuit?

No. I admit it is a lousy question as worded but if I had it on a test that would be my guess and move on.

I would also like to know the exact verbiage of the question but I wonder if the answer was looking for "heat lamps"

That's why I chose 422.48(A). Infrared lamps 300 watts or less.
