Mike is placing portable fire extinguishers around the building where there is electrical equipment. How far should these fire extinguishers be from the electrical equipment?
  1. 10 ft
  2. 75 ft
  3. 25 ft
  4. 50 ft
Explanation
Answer: D - Fire extinguishers should be within 50 feet from electrical equipment and near exits. Portable fire extinguishers have markings that indicate what type of fire they should be used on. The markings denote what types of chemicals are within the canisters and what types of fires they have been approved to be used on. The extinguishers should be marked clearly with an unobstructed view. They should be easily reachable and operational by employees and inspected quarterly.
