If the scope of work on the work order is different than what the NAC customer on site is requesting, you must:

STOP immediately & contact the NAC team bfore proceeding.

Complete work and ask for NTE increase

Have customer contact the NAC team directly

Before leaving the site, confirm all requirements are complete and:

Leave site quietly

Thank the customer for their business

Lighting

What Are Lumens?

Lumens is the unit of measure that determines how much light a bulb or a fixture (that includes a bulb) will give off

Photons leaving lamp

Different name for a light fixture

All of the above

What Is the Kelvin Scale?

Light density scale

How many fixtures Kelvin can install in an hour

Kelvin is how light color is measured

Light curvature measurement device

What Is a Flourescent Bulb?

Only bulb that can be installed in cold storage place

Uses the metal halide vapors to operate

One that will give the best possible light

What Is a LED Bulb?

It is a semiconductor that emits light when current flows through it and electrons within that semiconductor release energy in the form of photons which is the light

A LED light bulb is a solid-state lighting (SSL) device

LEDs are the most energy efficient lighting option available

All of the above

Are LED Lights Considered Green Technology?

It can be installed in green houses

The only lamps that lower the emissions of greenhouse gases

LED lights come in many different colors

LED bulbs or lights are considered to be green because they use less energy versus the other lighting options

What Is a Damp Rated Light Fixture?

The only fixture rated for city trash disposal areas

Damp rated light fixtures are used in areas where there may be some exposure to moisture, but not exposed to water

Heavy duty vehicle fixture

All of the above

What Happens if a Flourescent Bulb Breaks?

Glass tube is low pressure, therefore when tube structure is compromised, air will rush in and create shock wave thus appearance of exploding tube

Older fluorescent bulbs have mercury gas contained within them. If the bulb breaks, leave the area and wait for the gas to dissipate

Do not vacuum. Vacuuming could spread mercury-containing powder or mercury vapor

All of the above

A switch only used for 24-volt systems

A switch specifically designed for high pressure sodium fixtures

A switch that operates a three-way light bulb

A Capacitor is Connected Across the Flourescent Tube Circut in Order to:

Eliminate the loss

Limits high starting currents

Improves Power factor

All of the Above

In Electric Discharge Lamps, Light is Produced by:

Cathode ray emission

Ionization in a gas or vapor
