Determine the estimated cost of the electrical for the residence shown in Figure 18.7 using the following assembly costs. The associated wiring is included in the cost of each assembly. What is the fixture allowance for the residence?

What will be an ideal response?


Switches = $50
Duplex outlets = $50
GFI outlets = $60
Light fixtures (includes $30 fixture allowance) = $80
Main service = $1,000

The cost is calculated as follows:

Switches = $50 × 6 each = $300

Outlets = $50 × 16 each = $800

GFCI outlets = $60 × 3 each = $180

Light fixtures = $80 × 7 each = $560

Main service = $1,000 × 1 each = $1,000

Total cost = $300 + $800 + $180 + $560 + $1,000 = $2,840

Fixture allowance = $30 × 7 each = $210

Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)

1. For maximum transfer of power, the external devices connected to an amplifier must exceed the input and output impedances of the amplifier. 2. A transistor amplifier usually amplifies an AC signal, but first it needs a DC voltage (bias) to supply its operating power. 3. A transistor amplifier configuration is determined by the relationship between the DC input signal and the AC/DC output signal. 4. The common-emitter (CE) is the most widely used amplifier configuration. 5. The common-collector has a low output impedance.
