Question 104General Subjects - QMED
70% to passWhen installing DANGER tags when performing a tag-out and lock-out procedure in preparation for accomplishing maintenance, what is the color of these tags?
AOrange
BRed
CYellow
DGreen
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) Red. The color red is used for DANGER tags when performing a tag-out and lock-out procedure, as it signifies a hazardous condition that could result in serious injury or death if the equipment is operated. This is in accordance with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) regulations, which specify the use of red tags for DANGER when conducting maintenance or servicing activities. The other options are incorrect because orange, yellow, and green tags are used for different purposes, such as CAUTION, WARNING, or INFORMATION, respectively, and do not carry the same level of hazard as the red DANGER tag.
