In the equipment grounding diagram section, which labeled layer is immediately above BONDING JUMPER?

Correct Answer

D) GROUND BUS

The section stacks the layers vertically; GROUND BUS is printed immediately above BONDING JUMPER.

Answer Options
A
GROUND ROD
B
WATER PIPE BOND
C
SERVICE GEAR
D
GROUND BUS

Why This Is the Correct Answer

The section stacks the layers vertically; GROUND BUS is printed immediately above BONDING JUMPER.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: GROUND ROD

GROUND ROD is below BONDING JUMPER, not immediately above it.

Option B: WATER PIPE BOND

WATER PIPE BOND is an outside or terminal layer in the stack, not the adjacent layer asked for.

Option C: SERVICE GEAR

SERVICE GEAR is a different layer in the same section, but it is not the one directly above BONDING JUMPER.

Memory Technique

Layer-order hook for equipment-grounding diagram layer order: one band up from BONDING JUMPER, then stop.

Reference Hint

Open Sheet E-741; locate BONDING JUMPER in the section and read the layer immediately above it.
