A 60-ampere branch circuit is available exclusively for EV charging. With no load-management reduction, what maximum continuous EV input can it serve?

Texas Journeyman exam practice question · Special Occupancies, Equipment & Conditions

A 60-ampere branch circuit is available exclusively for EV charging. With no load-management reduction, what maximum continuous EV input can it serve?

A40 amperes
48 amperes
C60 amperes
D75 amperes

Why B is correct

Reverse the continuous-load factor: 60 ÷ 1.25 = 48 amperes maximum continuous EV input. Keep units consistent and use only the factors stated; no optional method or unstated demand factor is assumed.
