Question 53Electricity & Electronics - QMED

The correct answer is C) energize space heaters to prevent the condensation of moisture. When deck machinery is expected to be idle for an extended period, it is important to prevent the buildup of moisture, which can lead to corrosion and damage. Energizing space heaters helps maintain a dry environment around the machinery, preventing the condensation of moisture that can occur when the equipment is not in use. This is a common practice to protect the integrity and functionality of deck machinery during periods of inactivity. The other options are not the best solutions in this scenario. Option A is unnecessary, as electrical safety gloves are typically used during active operation, not for idle periods. Option B, performing a 'high pot' test, is not the appropriate action for an idle machinery setup. Option D, water washing the motor and controller, could actually introduce more moisture, which is the opposite of the desired outcome.
