  1. During a patrol, you find that the door to an electrical room has been left open and extension cords are running out of it. What is your primary concern?

    Answer: The open electrical room and cords indicate a potential fire ignition hazard

    Improper use of extension cords near electrical panels creates an ignition hazard; the fireguard must address this as a fire safety issue.

  2. If you must leave your fire watch post temporarily for an emergency, what must you do first?

    Answer: Ensure a qualified replacement takes over before you leave

    The fire watch post must never be left unattended; a qualified replacement must be in place before the assigned fireguard departs.

  3. Which class of fire extinguisher is most appropriate for a fire involving electrical equipment?

    Answer: Class C

    Class C extinguishers use non-conductive agents and are rated for fires involving energized electrical equipment.

  4. A hot work permit has expired during the workday but the contractor wants to continue. As the fireguard, you should:

    Answer: Stop all hot work immediately until a new valid permit is obtained

    Hot work must stop immediately when a permit expires; operations cannot resume until a new, valid permit is issued and posted.

  5. What does PASS stand for when using a fire extinguisher?

    Answer: Pull, Aim, Squeeze, Sweep

    PASS stands for Pull the pin, Aim at the base of the fire, Squeeze the handle, and Sweep side to side.

  6. During a fire watch in a building with a partial sprinkler system, you discover a fire in a non-sprinklered area. What additional step is critical compared to a fully protected building?

    Answer: Immediately activate manual pull stations and call 911, since there is no automatic suppression

    In non-sprinklered areas, there is no automatic suppression, so the fireguard must immediately trigger manual alarms and call 911 without delay.

  7. Which of the following BEST describes the fireguard's role during an FDNY inspection of a hot work site?

    Answer: Present the valid Hot Work Permit, fire watch log, and demonstrate knowledge of emergency procedures

    During an FDNY inspection, the fireguard must be able to produce the permit and log, and demonstrate readiness to respond to emergencies.
