Why B is correct
The text supplies the missing geometry: the corner blocks the view. The proposal fails the specified visibility condition. OSHA 1910.303(b)(2) also requires listed/labeled equipment to follow included listing instructions; this is not a claim that every disconnect has identical placement rules.
