A box provides 20.0 cubic inches for 10 AWG conductors, using a supplied 2.50-cubic-inch allowance per equivalent. How many conductor equivalents fit?
- A6 equivalents
- B10 equivalents
- 8 equivalents
- D12 equivalents
Why C is correct
Divide available volume by the supplied allowance: 20.0 ÷ 2.50 = eight conductor equivalents. Keep units consistent and use only the factors stated; no optional method or unstated demand factor is assumed.
