True

   

False

       
4. A computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) is a type of management software that performs functions in support of management and tracking of O&M activities
       
   

True

   

False

       
5. Reactive maintenance can be defined as actions performed on a time- or machine-run-based schedule that detect, preclude, or mitigate degradation of a component or system with the aim of sustaining or extending its useful life through controlling degradation to an acceptable level.
       
   

True

   

False

       
6. Predictive maintenance can be defined as measurements that detect the onset of a degradation mechanism, thereby allowing causal stressors to be eliminated or controlled prior to any significant deterioration in the component physical state.
       
   

True

   

False

       
7. Infrared (IR) thermography can be defined as the process of generating visual images that represent variations in IR radiance of surfaces of objects.
       
   

True

    False
       
8. What does PPE stand for?
       
   

Personal Protective Equipment

   

Professional Protective Equipment

None of the above

       
9. A measurement of the speed at which a machine or machine component is moving as it undergoes oscillating motion is called velocity.
       
   

True

   

False

       
10.

New building commissioning (Cx) is a means to ensuring through design reviews, functional testing, system documentation, and operator training that systems and equipment in new buildings are operating properly.

       
   

True

   

False

       
11.

Value recommissioning (VCx) is the lowest cost option that focuses on the most common opportunities, ideally incorporating them into daily operating procedures.

       
   

True

   

False

       
12.

The primary goals of new building commissioning efforts are to

       
   

Ensure design intent criteria and the owner's requirements are documented and met

   

Ensure systems and equipment are fully functional and operate in an integrated manner

   

Provide documentation on systems and equipment that will be

   

Verify O&M staff training needs is met

13. Ultrasonic, or ultrasounds, are defined as sound waves that have a frequency level below 20 kHz.
       
   

True

   

False

       
14. Advanced meters can duplicate the conventional metering function of recording total consumption, plus offer enhanced functions such as time-of-use, peak demand, load survey, and power outage recording.
       
   

True

   

False

True

   

False

       
16. Short-term monitoring combines both elements of the previous two levels into a time-series record of energy or resource use: magnitude and duration.
       
   

True

   

False

       
17.

True

   

False

       
20. A cooling tower is a specialized heat exchanger in which two fluids (air and water) are brought into direct contact with each other to affect the transfer of heat.
       
   

True
