Bonding (NEC Article 100 & 250-90)
Measurement of reflected signal caused by imperfections and mismatches in impedance.
RETURN LOSS (RL)
This is a logarithmic stepped standardized wire gauge system used since 1857, predominantly in North America, for the diameters of round, solid, nonferrous, electrically conducting wire.
AMERICAN WIRE GAUGE (AWG)
OM1 and OM2 are types of multi-mode optical fibers from 1989 and 1998, respectively. Both types are now Legacy technologies. Your contractor wants the modern types of multi-modes optical fibers for the best efficiency. What color are these Legacy fibers to avoid choosing it for your contractor?

It serves as the housing for telecommunication equipment, cable terminations, and cross-connect cabling
Telecommunication Enclosure (TE)
It is the most common way to establish the telecommunication ground (provided by a licensed or authorized electrician)
Electrical Service Ground
This device directly measures light loss in dB at specific wavelengths.
Optical Loss Test Set (OLTS)
The authority/organization that creates universal structured cabling topology for commercial and residential environments (write the whole name).
Telecommunication Industry Association (TIA)
The standard cladding diameter of an optical fiber.
125 µm
A commercial establishment in Makati City is planning to install a telephone system for its operations. At what minimum number of telephone lines would the establishment be required to provide service entrance housing facilities (entrance conduits)?
More than 3 lines
What NEC Article no. sets minimum safety requirements, including the mandatory bonding of metallic panels, raceways, and equipment grounding conductors?
NEC Article 250
Before installation, the cables must be conditioned for 24 hours. What is the minimum temperature at which the cables should be conditioned to avoid cracking?
0°C or 32°F

TIA 606-A
The recommended slack length for a telecommunication room.
3 m (10 ft)
