Front

When comparing the neutral conductor to the grounding conductor, what is true? A both serve the same function, B the grounding conductor carries the current if the neutral breaks, C the grounding conductor is not designed to carry normal current load, D the grounding conductor can be used for the neutral or return

Back

the grounding conductor is not designed to carry normal current load

Front

A pipe exposed to normal outdoor temperatures bursts due to freezing. The pipe must be replaced with the same type of material that experienced the failure. What is the best way, to protect the pipe from failing again?

Back

Cover the new pipe with insulation to minimize the heat flow.
