Answer: B
A protective cover over the switch would allow it to be
accessible and visible, but would prevent accidental
activation. Relocating the shut off switch would defeat the
purpose of having it readily accessible. Escorting the
personnel moving the equipment may not have prevented this
incident and logging of environmental failures would provide
management with a report of incidents, but reporting alone
would not prevent a reoccurrence.
