When installing electrical wiring parallel to a fuel line, the wiring should be

  1. below the fuel line

  2. beside the fuel line

  3. above the fuel line

  4. Interwoven with the fuel line

The correct answer is: above the fuel line

When installing electrical wiring parallel to a fuel line, it is important to keep the wiring above the fuel line to prevent any potential hazards. Option A, having the wiring below the fuel line, could lead to damage to the wiring or potential for sparks if the fuel line were to leak. Option B, having the wiring beside the fuel line, could also lead to potential damage or contact with the fuel line. Option D, interweaving the wiring with the fuel line, would create a tangled and confusing mess that could potentially cause issues with maintenance and repairs in the future. Therefore, option C, keeping the wiring above the fuel line, is the safest and most practical option.
