Question 103General Subjects - QMED
70% to passUnder what conditions is a CAUTION tag installed at equipment control stations in preparation for performing maintenance or repairs?
The correct answer is D) When operation of the equipment requires temporary special instructions to be provided. A caution tag is installed at equipment control stations when operation of the equipment could endanger personnel or equipment, and temporary special instructions are needed to safely perform maintenance or repairs. The purpose of the caution tag is to notify personnel that the equipment should not be operated without following the provided instructions. The other options are incorrect because they do not fully capture the conditions that warrant a caution tag. Option A focuses only on harm to the equipment, while option B focuses only on endangering personnel. Option C is too broad, as a caution tag is not required if the operation would only harm the equipment or only endanger personnel, without requiring special instructions.
