Which of the following is NOT a safety practice for working near power lines? A. Locate underground lines before digging B. Prov
ide inadequate training to workers about power line hazards C. Use rider posts, when available, to prevent getting too close to power linesD. Verify that the owner has de-energized and visibly grounded the power lines
Your answer will for sure be, B. Provide inadequate training to workers about power line hazards because the word inadequate means not enough, bad, not useful, and more negative things... Everything in B has a good connotation except for that one word. They'll end up dead with that type of training.
Why not the rest? A- it states to "locate" before digging which is a good precaution. C- the word "prevent" infers to stop something bad from happening and the rider posts is another good precaution. D- the word "verify" is another word inferring to prevent something bad form occurring. The word "visibly" stands for assurance. Assurance that the owner has de-energized and grounded the power lines. Who wants to get electric shocked? All except for B has a good connotation meaning all except B has something or stands for something good. I hope this helps!! Any questions?
