A recessed luminaire that is NOT identified for insulation contact must maintain what minimum clearance from thermal insulation?
a.1 inch
b.1/2 inch
c.6 inches
d.3 inches
Explicación
A non-IC recessed luminaire must be spaced at least 3 inches from thermal insulation so heat can dissipate, and insulation must not be installed above it in a way that traps heat. The 1/2-inch dimension is the required clearance from combustible materials other than the mounting surface, which is a different measurement.
