A facility emergency plan directs occupants to leave a room and call the response team when its refrigerant alarm sounds. The alarm activates. What should an untrained occupant do?
- Leave as directed and notify the response team from a safe location.
- BRemain inside to locate the leak by smell.
- CAssume switching off the thermostat has stopped the release.
- DRe-enter alone to silence the alarm.
Where to look it up
Explicit exercise assumptions; not a universal code requirement.
Why A is correct
Follow the supplied emergency plan. Turning off equipment does not establish that a release has stopped or that the atmosphere is safe. The scenario does not authorize untrained rescue or repair.
