<RECENT VERSION>
If not overloaded, the ground bearing pressure of a single outrigger pad can
approach a weight equal to: - answer-85% of the weight of the crane and 100%
of the suspended load
If you move a crawler crane from soft ground to harder ground, ground
bearing pressure will - answer-increase
On a crawler crane, ground bearing pressure is greatest when hoisting where?
- answer-over the corner
If an outrigger pad has 45,000 pounds applied to it and the pad measures 2ft x
2ft how many psi is it applying to the ground? - answer-78 PSI
When a crane is working around energized lines, the employees standing or
working on the ground shall not contact the crane unless protected by -
answer-An equipotential zone
,Mobile cranes operating in the proximity of energized power lines shall be -
answer-Barricaded to prevent contact
A self-controlled device for automatically interrupting a circuit with a pre-
determined sequence of opening, closing, and locking out is a - answer-
Automatic recloser
Any person in contact with a crane that is both grounded to the system neutral
and making contact with an energized line would be exposed to - answer-Full
fault potential
A person standing near a ground that is attached to a crane that has made
contact with the power lines is exposed to - answer-Step potential
A person getting material off of a crane that has made contact with a power
line is exposed to - answer-Touch potential
If a non-electrically-qualified operator's minimum approved distance is 10 ft
for lines energized at 50 kV or less, what is the minimum approved distance for
lines energized at more than 50 kV? - answer-Add 4 inches for every 10 kV over
50 kV
If a qualified equipment operator is to use a crane closer than 10 feet to
energized lines or equipment, the operator - answer-Must be a qualified
electrical worker
The area produced through the use of a metal mat connected to a grounded
object (i.e. a crane) is referred to as the - answer-Equipotential zone
,The exposure that could risk injury to a person standing near a ground
attached to a crane that has made contact with a power line is called - answer-
Step potential
When is it acceptable to have multiple clearances on a single circuit or line? -
answer-Any crew that requires one can have one
When the employee in charge is going to release a clearance, they must -
answer-Notify each employee under the clearance, make sure each employee
is in the clear, and make sure the grounds are removed
When a line is cleared for work, the system operator will issue a clearance to
the - answer-Designated person
Protective grounding equipment must be able to handle the maximum fault
current at - answer-The point of grounding
Personal protective grounds need to be a minimum size of - answer-#2 AWG
copper
What is the maximum resistance of a driven ground? - answer-25 ohms
OSHA requires retraining if a task has not been performed for over how long? -
answer-1 year
, Blocking (cribbing) may be placed under outrigger beams - answer-Never
When leveling a crane, where would be the best location to place the level? -
answer-Upperworks
In setting up the crane, the operator can extend three outriggers fully and one
only halfway out, but all vertical cylinders are down, and floats are on good
supports. The operator must - answer-Use the "on rubber" load chart
What should be a primary concern of an operator when setting up a crane on a
construction site with newly constructed buildings? - answer-underground
pipes
When extending the outriggers you should - answer-make visual contact or
post a signalperson
All hazards and potential problems should be discovered during the - answer-
Pre-lift site inspection
Blocking can be placed under the ends of tracks to - answer-Increase the
crane's stability when operating over front or back
You can't level your crawler crane - answer-Don't operate crane
For cribbing under the outrigger float, it is best to have the blocking how? -
answer-Crossed and through bolted
