permitted as _________ or _______ conductor where
permanently reidentified to indicate its use, by painting or
other effective means at its termination and at each
location where the conductor is visible and accessible -

If the DC resistance of a #500 kcmil copper conductor
1000 feet in length is .0258 ohm, the DC resistance for a
#1000 kcmil copper conductor 1000 feet in length would
be ________ ohm. - Answer-0.0129, is because if you
double the cross-sectional area (csa) of a conductor it will
reduce the resistance by 1/2. .0258/2= .0129
