If a separate grounding electrode is installed for the radio and television equipment, it shall be bonded to the building’s electrical power grounding electrode system with a bonding jumper not smaller than _____ AWG.
6 AWG
If the building or structure served has an intersystem bonding termination, the bonding conductor for an antenna mast shall be connected to the intersystem bonding termination.
True
Each lead-in conductor from an outdoor antenna shall be provided with a listed antenna discharge unit, unless enclosed in a continuous metallic shield that is either grounded or protected by an antenna discharge unit.
True
Accessible portions of abandoned communications cable shall be removed.
True
Communications circuits are circuits that extend_____and outside wiring for fire alarms and burglar alarms from the communications utility to the customer’s
communications equipment up to and including equipment such as a telephone, fax machine, or answering machine.
All of these (voice, audio and video, interactive services)
For buildings with a grounding means but without an intersystem bonding termination, the grounding electrode conductor for communications circuits shall terminate to the power service accessible means external to enclosures using the options identified in 250.94(A) Ex.
True
In one- and two-family dwellings, the primary protector bonding conductor or grounding electrode conductor for communications systems shall be as short as practicable, not to exceed ____ ft in length.
20
For buildings with grounding means but without an intersystem bonding termination, the grounding electrode conductor for communications circuits shall terminate to the nearest_____
Any of these-
buildings or structure, interior metal water pipe system,service equipment

Any of these (fittings, boxes or enclosures, fire alarm devices)
Cable splices or terminations in power-limited fire alarm systems shall be made in listed or utilization equipment.
True
Fire alarm systems include______
All of these (fire detection and alarm, guards tour, sprinkler waterflow)
Fire alarm cables identified for future use shall be marked with a tag of sufficient durability to withstand_____
The environment involved
Fire alarm circuits shall be identified at all terminal and junction locations in a manner that helps prevent unintentional signals on fire alarm system circuits during
________of other systems.
Testing and servicing
One example of the use of Class 2 cables is a network of closed-circuit TV cameras using 24 AWG, 60°C rated, Type CL2R, Category 5e local area network (LAN) cables.
True
Due to its power limitations, a Class 2 circuit considers safety from a fire initiation standpoint and provides acceptable protection from electric shock.
True
