Question 8Electricity & Electronics - 1st Asst/Chief

The correct answer is A. The purpose of the live-dead-live test when performing an absence-of-voltage test is to prove the functional ability of the voltage tester to measure voltage prior to and after conducting the absence-of-voltage test. This validates the results of the absence-of-voltage test, ensuring that the voltage tester is working properly and providing accurate readings. The other options are incorrect because: B) The live-dead-live test is not performed solely after the absence-of-voltage test. C) The live-dead-live test is not performed solely before the absence-of-voltage test. D) The absence-of-voltage test does not validate the live-dead-live test; the live-dead-live test validates the absence-of-voltage test.
