In a typical fire detection control unit, what would be indicated by an illuminated yellow light?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Typical color codes used on fire detection panels (red, yellow/amber, green) • Difference between alarm indications and fault/trouble indications • How power source status is usually shown on control units

💭 Think About

• Which color is most commonly associated with an active fire or smoke alarm on safety equipment? • When something is in a fault or abnormal condition (like a wiring problem, disabled detector, or system error), what color light do many control panels use? • How are normal vs. backup power conditions typically indicated on panels—by color, by text, or both?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option best matches a fault/trouble condition rather than an active alarm or normal condition • Confirm which color is usually linked to a fire/smoke alarm (compare to the options) • Check whether power status (normal or backup) is usually indicated by a dedicated label or meter rather than just a yellow light
