Guide
-www.wbdg.org
--Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC)
--Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS)
--AF Design Guides (AFDG)
--AF Engineering Technical Letter (ETL)

correct answer ✔Architect
Landscape Architect
Owner
Client
Tenants

Programmers
Contractor
Specialists (Security, Telecom, etc.)

, [ELECTRICAL FUNDAMENTALS] Describe dangers and limitations caused
by over current and over voltage conditions - correct answer ✔-Both high
current and high voltage are very dangerous but it is the current that can kill
someone
-High voltage is so dangerous because it has the ability to deliver high current
--Example: Faulty wire in showers in Iraq where US military members were
electrocuted and killed
-As current increases; need a bigger conductor (bigger wire)
-As voltage increases; need more insulation
[ELECTRICAL FUNDAMENTALS] Describe the relationships between
current, voltage, loads and power - correct answer ✔-Current is the flow of a
charge
-Voltage is the potential between 2 points
-Loads:
--Resistive Loads - no storage of energy (heat/light)
--Inductive Loads - stores energy in magnetic fields
--Capacitive Loads - stores energy in electric fields
-Power is the rate of doing work
-Current is what flows through a circuit and voltage can be measured at any 2
points in that circuit; loads are the parts of the circuit that are affecting the
overall ability to do work (or power) by storing or not storing energy
[ELECTRICAL FUNDAMENTALS] Describe the mathematical relationship
between apparent, real, and reactive power - correct answer ✔o Power
triangle:
-Hypotenuse= S= VI... [Apparent Power]
-Horiz. Leg = P=VI*cos (0)... [Real Power]
-Vert. Leg = Q= VI*sin (0)...[Reactive Power]
