🔍 Key Concepts

• Capacitor charge storage – a capacitor can remain charged even after power is removed • Electrical safety practices – what is done to eliminate stored energy before contact • Difference between tagging/labeling and physically making a device safe

💭 Think About

• Think about what makes a capacitor dangerous even when the circuit is off or disconnected. • Which choice actually removes or neutralizes any stored electrical energy in the capacitor? • Which options are just identification or tools, and which one directly affects the capacitor’s stored charge?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which action directly ensures the capacitor has no remaining charge before being touched. • Eliminate any option that only labels or marks the circuit without changing its electrical state. • Check whether any option could increase risk (like causing a spark or arc) instead of safely removing stored energy.

gently tap the body with a screwdriver

tag it with a de-energized tag

be equipped with an insulated fuse puller

short circuit the terminals to make sure that the capacitor is discharged
