I can't find anywhere in the NEC that says a lighting load, even a commercial lighting load, shall be considered continuous. However, I've gotten practice test questions for the Journeyman exam wrong because I didn't apply the additional 25% to my calcs. I've searched online for answers to this but people say it's "usually considered" etc etc, but nothing siting the CODE. So if I'm asked on the real exam to calculate the ampacity of a a circuit supplying a commercial lighting load (or dwelling for that matter) how should I calculate this?
