🔍 Key Concepts

• Electrical lockout/tagout procedures before maintenance • Hazards of energized equipment on cargo gear • Purpose of circuit breakers and tags in preventing accidental re-energizing

💭 Think About

• When you open up or work inside an electrical controller, what is the main danger you are trying to eliminate? • Which option directly prevents someone else from accidentally supplying power while you are working? • Which choice reflects an established safety procedure rather than just a comfort or minor maintenance step?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option actually removes electrical power from the equipment, not just improves conditions in the box. • Check which action would warn others not to restore power while work is in progress. • Eliminate any choices that deal only with moisture or condensate and do not address shock or energizing hazards.
