FDNY COF For Fire Alarm Systems Inspection, Testing And Service Technician (S-98) Practice Exam

What is the purpose of tagging an uninstalled device during inspection?

To trigger automatic testing To bypass the device To distinguish it from active devices and document its status To enable immediate use

Correct Answer:

To distinguish it from active devices and document its status

Explanation:

Tagging an uninstalled device during inspection is about clearly marking that device so it is distinguished from live, active devices and its status is documented. This keeps the installation queue and records accurate, prevents confusion about what is or isn’t part of the active system, and provides traceability for future installation or follow-up work. It also helps ensure safety and proper coordination, since everyone knows that device is not yet installed or tested. This tag is not meant to trigger tests, bypass the device, or enable immediate use, which is why those options don’t fit.
