(005) All of the following operations may continue when electrical storms are within 5 nautical miles of the servicing area except
- A.
Transfer operations.
- B.
Fill stand operations.
- C.
Base service station issues.
- D.
Commercial pipeline receipts.
Correct Answer
B. Fill stand operations.Explanation
During electrical storms, it is unsafe to perform certain operations due to the risk of lightning strikes. Transfer operations, base service station issues, and commercial pipeline receipts may all continue during electrical storms as they do not involve the use of fill stands. Fill stand operations, on the other hand, typically involve the use of electrical equipment and can pose a higher risk during storms. Therefore, fill stand operations are the only operation that may not continue when electrical storms are within 5 nautical miles of the servicing area.Rate this question:
