In the life safety legend, what does symbol FEC mean?

Correct Answer

A) Fire extinguisher cabinet

The legend defines FEC as Fire extinguisher cabinet.

Answer Options
A
Fire extinguisher cabinet
B
Exit sign
C
Smoke detector
D
Electric water heater

Why This Is the Correct Answer

The legend defines FEC as Fire extinguisher cabinet.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option B: Exit sign

Exit sign may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the legend symbol meaning exposure being tested.

Option C: Smoke detector

Smoke detector may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the legend symbol meaning exposure being tested.

Option D: Electric water heater

Electric water heater may relate to another site control, but it does not remove or guard the legend symbol meaning exposure being tested.

Memory Technique

Name the harm before the guard; exit, sign, smoke cannot stand in for Plan Review.

Reference Hint

Open-book path: turn to sheet G-011 in the plan packet, then use the GENERAL SYMBOL LEGEND - LIFE SAFETY note/table before checking P&P Commercial Construction plan-reading guidance.
