  1. A log entry reads: 'Breaker 14 tripped twice in 24 hours; cause undetermined.' What does 'cause undetermined' mean?

    Answer: The cause has not been identified

    'Undetermined' means not yet identified or established.

  2. A work order states: 'Replace defective capacitors in Unit 3 only.' A technician notices Unit 4 also has a defective capacitor. What should the technician do?

    Answer: Report the Unit 4 issue to a supervisor

    The work order is limited to Unit 3; the proper action is to report additional defects through proper channels.

  3. A procedure says: 'If voltage exceeds 130V, shut down immediately and notify the control center.' Voltage reads 132V. What is the correct action?

    Answer: Shut down and notify control center

    132V exceeds 130V, so the procedure requires an immediate shutdown and notification.

  4. A safety bulletin reads: 'Arc flash incidents account for the majority of electrical fatalities in utility work.' What is the MAIN point of this statement?

    Answer: Arc flash is a leading cause of electrical deaths

    The statement identifies arc flash as causing the majority of electrical fatalities, making it a primary safety concern.

  5. A schedule reads: 'Lubrication: monthly; Inspection: quarterly; Full overhaul: annually.' How many inspections occur per year?

    Answer: 4

    Quarterly means every 3 months, so 12 ÷ 3 = 4 inspections per year.

  6. A passage states: 'The relay is designed to interrupt current flow when amperage exceeds the preset threshold.' What does the relay do?

    Answer: Stops current when it is too high

    The relay 'interrupts current flow' when amperage exceeds the threshold, meaning it stops the current.
