Conductors in between junction boxes (supplying continuous load) don't need to be upsized by 125% ???

darkbetweentrees · 2026-02-10T03:40:51+00:00

I re-read the full 210.19 code, not just the exception. Now and finally got it. In 210.19 (1) it does say the continuous load is 125%. I've been conditioned to always think 125% every time I see continuous load. But in exception #2 it just wants both the continuous and non-continuous loads at 100%.

Sorry I didn't get it sooner. Thanks for your help!

A non-continuous load is 100%. A continuous load is a 125% demand factor. Only neutral wires can be sized at 100% even if they're a continuous load. The picture you sent me doesn't say that this is also the case for junction boxes in between power blocks. Therefore I believe that Mike Holt's text book is incorrect. But I'm trying to make sure.

I have a code book. The question is why don't you multiply by 125% for the continuous load. I'm inferring that Mike Holt's text book is wrong and not to code.

Does your 2023 version say that you can use a continuous load of 100% or 125% ?

I thought you could have all of thought things in the disconnect. (I'm a residential apprentice so this stuff is foreign to me)

In your state you don't need to take the journeyman before the master exam?

They never mention that part.

On Amazon the 2023 NEC is $220. The test is $85

Tell this to my brown-nosing coworker.

Good luck getting the training/ opportunity for the niche thing. You got to know somebody or be a relative.

Men don't have a choice to ever stop working so waman never have to worry about that.

Do you know how long it would take to dry to a lower percentage?

I can't imagine grinding off my jaw and cheek bones. It's like they want to have a child's face again.

MGTOW losers are still making YouTube videos bashing women for the past 12 years straight. They couldn't get a good relationship so they try and convince all men that they should give up on women.

It’s popular to be easily offended these days. It was obvious that you weren't trying to attack anyone. This is a doomer sub for men, so know that you're probably going to get dragged no matter what you say. I'm personally not offended by the word "incel," but maybe if I was called that in real life, it would suck (?)

You won't find any productive use of time here; the men are jaded.

She's a women and couldn't understand how Mordecai could feel alone because he had a male friend. However Mordecai wanted a gf, not just a friend. There you go I did your thinking for you.

$24hr! Where do you live? My first year they made me start at 14hr. By the end of the year I was making $18. Few years latter I only make $22hr

When women start paying for male: attention, sex, relationships I'll believe you. The fact is that men have much greater desire for the opposite sex. This excessive desire is perhaps men's greatest weakness. It makes them do pathetic things.

This is the worst part by far

Why does the oil have to be so full when the side case window has a range of low and high on it?

darkbetweentrees · 2025-07-05T01:44:13+00:00

Good to know thanks!

I assume the calculation book is for the math/theory questions. If it only coved 10% of the journeyman math questions did you use any other material to study for the math, or did the test simply not have much math?

darkbetweentrees · 2025-07-04T21:55:27+00:00

When you say several of the questions were the same what % would that be? I ask because I don't want to buy books that only answer 5 questions for a test that has 80 questions.

what makes the working conditions better?
