According to code, how long should temporary wiring remain in place?

Temporary wiring is meant to provide power for a limited and specific purpose during a project, such as construction or maintenance. It is not intended for long-term use. The correct guideline states that temporary wiring should be removed immediately after it is no longer needed. This helps minimize risks associated with electrical hazards, such as fire or accidental electrocution, which can arise from unnecessary or unmonitored wiring. Properly managing temporary wiring ensures a safer work environment and adheres to code standards that prioritize safety and efficiency during construction projects.

The other options suggest varying lengths of time for which temporary wiring should remain in place, which do not align with the principle that it should only be in use as long as necessary for work activities.
