CSCS Card RCD Question

[ebow72]

I am due my CSCS card renewal and have the revision disc and this quesiton came up, now I am either loosing my marbles or RCD's have changed their purpose since this disc came out.


My answer was A, but they seem to think it's D. One that slipped through the net I reckon.

Of course it's bloody A

Theoretically speaking it could be "A", but if you consider the abstact differential position of what the examiner is driving at it could be "D". Alternatively if you looked at it from a renewables angle you could argue the case for "C" and on a purely left of field play you could go for "B".

Guess thats the beauty of multiple guess, pick whatever answer you want and everyone passes :44:

It is D, get a fault and it lowers the voltage to zero.

 

[telectrix]

if it's a plug-in RCD, you can use the pins to trap the tool's cable ends in the holes of the socket. better than matchsticks.

Answer E.
You have a crap revision disc.

The REAL test won't have that answer.

Of course it's bloody A

Doesn't say what type of fault has occured, could be a dead short between live and neutral so it won't operate

 

[telectrix]

no, but the nail in the DB would get warm.

 

[Des 56]

C of course

It saves energy and lowers cost
That's correct until the tool in option B resets the Rcd

 

[snowhead]

This mock seems to have the correct answer.

 

[GLENNSPARK]

Of course it's bloody A

no it int....its D...its obvious as there will be a resistance across the switch inside...hence the drop in voltage...

 

[telectrix]

might be to get the volts down to 230 before the brussels gestapo get involved and kick us out the EU..... can't wait.

We've all failed the test miserably but in keeping with the latest views on exams the pass mark has been lowered to ensure we get a 80% pass rate. You all have now been upgraded to a pass -- all your answers were correct except E :smug:

I'm calling the Geneva convention, wherever that is.
I'm being victimised, my Human rights are being erroded,
I'll have the stigma of being a failure for the rest of my, short, life.

So that means the H&S CsCs test I passed about a month ago is now invalid, blimey now I'm being pigeonholed as less able.

That's a relief then.

looks like you failed as well, only 30 out of 50

Think that means question 30 out of 50
