Question 1015 Deck Safety
70% to passIn illustration D039SA below, which Fire Control Plan symbol signifies equipment you would use if your fire pump(s) failed?
The correct answer is C) 19. The symbol 19 in the Fire Control Plan signifies a fire hose connection, which would be used in the event that the fire pump(s) failed. This is because the fire hose connection allows you to access the fire main system and use water from an alternative source, such as a fire hydrant or another vessel, to fight the fire. The other options are incorrect because: A) 21 represents a fire extinguisher, which would not be a suitable replacement for a failed fire pump. B) 22 represents a fire hydrant, which is not the same as a fire hose connection. D) 54 represents a fire alarm, which does not provide an alternative water source for firefighting.
