Refrigeration & Air Conditioning USCG Question #39 (Set 1)

Which of the valves listed is normally closed when charging the refrigeration system through the high side?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option C — Liquid line king valve

Charging through the high side requires isolating the liquid receiver by closing the liquid line king valve. This prevents backfeeding liquid into the condenser and ensures refrigerant flows properly into the high-pressure liquid manifold during initial charging operations.
