- 46. An overcurrent protective device with a circuit-opening fusible part that is heated and severed by the passage of overcurrent through it
Down
- 1. Equipment that changes dc to ac
- 2. An accessory such as a locknut, bushing, or other part of a wiring system that is intended primarily to perform a mechanical rather than an electrical function
- 3. A complete lighting unit consisting of a light source such as a lamp or lamps, together with the parts designed to position the light source and connect it to the power supply. It may also include parts to protect the light source or the ballast or to distribute the light.
- 5. Fault, An unintentional, electrically conductive connection between an ungrounded conductor of an electrical circuit and the normally non–current-carrying conductors, metallic enclosures, metallic raceways, metallic equipment, or earth
- 7. Acceptable to the authority having jurisdiction
- 9. The conductors and equipment connecting the serving utility to the wiring system of the premises served
- 13. The maximum current, in amperes, that a conductor can carry continuously under the conditions of use without exceeding its temperature rating
- 14. Outlet, An outlet intended for the direct connection of a lampholder or luminaire
- 15. Any current in excess of the rated current of equipment or the ampacity of a conductor. It may result from overload, short circuit, or ground fault
- 19. A point on the wiring system at which current is taken to supply utilization equipment

A single receptacle is a single contact device with no other contact device on the same yoke or strap. A multiple receptacle is two or more contact devices on the same yoke or strap
- 26. Voltage, A nominal value assigned to a circuit or system for the purpose of conveniently designating its voltage class
- 27. Conductor, The conductor connected to the neutral point of a system that is intended to carry current under normal conditions
- 31. Operation of equipment in excess of normal, full-load rating, or of a conductor in excess of its ampacity that, when it persists for a sufficient length of time, would cause damage or dangerous overheating. A fault, such as a short circuit or ground fault, is not an overload
- 32. The earth
- 33. Circuit Interrupter, A device intended to provide protection from the effects of arc faults by recognizing characteristics unique to arcing and by functioning to de-energize the circuit when an arc fault is detected
