✔✔ An AFCI detects and interrupts arcing faults that could lead to fires, enhancing safety in

electrical systems.




What is the significance of using a lockout/tagout procedure in electrical work?


✔✔ Lockout/tagout procedures ensure that electrical circuits are de-energized and cannot be

accidentally re-energized during maintenance, protecting workers from electrical hazards.




What is the role of a capacitor in an electrical motor circuit?


✔✔ A capacitor helps start the motor and improve its running efficiency by providing a phase

shift for the motor windings.




How do you calculate the total resistance in a parallel circuit?


✔✔ In a parallel circuit, the total resistance is calculated by taking the reciprocal of the sum of

the reciprocals of each individual resistance.




What is the difference between an electrical short circuit and an overload?
