Energy Policy Act of 1992

The deregulation of the electric utility industry commenced with the signing of the National Energy Policy Act of 1992 (EPACT 92), which additionally set minimum efficacy standards for many PAR and R incandescent lamps, and prohibited the manufacture of certain types of fluorescent lamps. One such fluorescent lamp type that is no longer manufactured is the 40W F40T12 (CW and WW). Which of the following are available alternatives? Choose 4

A. F40T10 lamps
B. 40W and 34W triphosphor F40T12 lamps (69+ CRI)
C. 60W halophosphor F96T12 CW or WW
D. 95W halophosphor F96T12/HO CW or WW
E. F32T8 lamps (requiring a compatible ballast)
F. F96T8/HO lamps (requiring a compatible ballast)
G. 34W halophosphor F40T12/ES CW or WW lamps
H. 75W and 60W triphosphor F96T12 (69+ CRI)




Answers A, B, E, and G are correct.
All other choices are above 40 watts and therefore not an equivalent output or energy usage.

For EITHER steel or wood beams, a question that asks for the allowable deflection limit (maximum) for live loads only requires which of the following equations? A. L/240 B. L/360 C. ∆ = 5wl⁴ / 384EI D. ∆ = 5Wl³ / 384EI Answer B. L/360 or span in inches divided by 360. ARE 4.0 exam prep: SS Note on calculations: From posted discussions on AREforum , memorization of most equations is not advised. However, even when the equation may be available in in-exam reference, selection of the appropriate equation requires correct identification.
