17th edition exam question not find answer?

[TONY JONES]

just wondered if anyone can find this one as i couldn`t

A single phase ac installation from a lighting db contains a common conduit with 8 single core cables the grouping factor to be applied is

a 0.59

b 0.65

c 0.75

d 0.8

may be i was rushing but could not find one of these in grouping factors?

cheers

Tony

app 4, 2.3.3.1 how many circuits?

thats how question was worded did not state number of circuits that threw me

Is it 0.80?, table 4c1 p268 i think mate.

have not got book but dont think 0.8 applies to 8 cables?

i'd go for 0.65. Table 4C1 "Note 3: factors apply to - groups of 2 or 3 single core cables"
8 singles....4 groups of 2...0.65 that's my reckoning anyway

could have 2 groups of 3 and a group of 2 which would give you 3 circuits and 0.70, but that's not one of the choices.
