Indoor-rated equipment is proposed outdoors beneath a small awning. What must be verified?
- An assembly identified for outdoor conditions
- BOnly conductor color matters
- CA larger breaker makes the enclosure weatherproof
- DThe awning automatically converts it to outdoor equipment
Why A is correct
Outdoor exposure can include rain, condensation, sun, and corrosion despite an awning. The enclosure, fittings, and associated components must carry ratings suitable for the environment; field assumptions cannot create a listing.
