    What color does DIG SAFE use to flag Electric lines?

    Explanation
    DIG SAFE uses the color red to flag electric lines. This is a widely recognized color code in the industry for indicating the presence of electric lines. Red is chosen because it is easily visible and stands out against most backgrounds, helping to prevent accidental digging or damage to the electric lines. It serves as a warning signal to anyone who may be working or digging in the area to exercise caution and avoid potential hazards.

      Current

    • B.

      Path

    • C.

      Voltage

    • F.

      Heat

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Current
    B. Path
    C. Time
    Explanation
    The level of injury from an electric shock is determined by three factors: current, path, and time. Current refers to the amount of electric current flowing through the body, with higher currents causing more severe injuries. Path refers to the route the electric current takes through the body, as different paths can result in different levels of injury. Time refers to the duration of the electric shock, with longer durations increasing the likelihood and severity of injuries. Therefore, these three factors play a crucial role in determining the level of injury from an electric shock.

    Padlocks for lockouts must be assigned to two people for redundancy.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that padlocks for lockouts must be assigned to two people for redundancy. However, this is not true. In lockout situations, it is important to assign a padlock to only one person to ensure accountability and avoid confusion. Assigning the padlock to multiple people can lead to miscommunication and may compromise the safety of the lockout process. Therefore, the correct answer is False.
