Try some questions from the course

Question 1 of 3

The cut cord on the floor scrubber is wrapped in tape. What should happen to it?

 

Tape does not fix damaged insulation. A damaged cord must be taken out of service until a qualified person repairs or replaces it.

Lesson 1, Why this matters, teaches this. See the outline

Question 2 of 3

You see a panel cover hanging open. What do you do?

 

Unqualified people do not work on or near exposed live parts. Keep clear and call a qualified person.

Lesson 2, Know the hazard, teaches this. See the outline

Question 3 of 3

An extension cord has been running to a freezer for months. What is the problem?

 

A cord used all the time is acting as permanent wiring. Ask for a proper outlet from a qualified person.

Lesson 3, Safe work practices, teaches this. See the outline
