The answer is the first one: Control the energy source.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Control the energy source: This is correct. Locking and tagging out devices are safety procedures used to ensure that dangerous machines are properly shut off and not able to be started up again prior to the completion of maintenance or repair work. This is done to control the energy source and prevent accidental release of hazardous energy.

  2. Keep the energy source: This is incorrect. The purpose of locking and tagging out is not to keep the energy source but to control and isolate it to ensure safety during maintenance.

  3. Help with meter reading: This is incorrect. Locking and tagging out devices are not used for meter reading. Meter reading involves measuring the consumption of utilities like electricity, water, or gas, which is unrelated to the safety procedures of locking and tagging out.

  4. Compare the output of transformers within the building: This is incorrect. Comparing the output of transformers is an electrical engineering task that involves measuring and analyzing the performance of transformers, which is not related to the safety procedures of locking and tagging out.

Summary: Locking and tagging out devices are used to control the energy source to ensure safety during maintenance or repair work by preventing accidental release of hazardous energy.

78 2 points In what way does the motor division of the nervous system differ from the sensory division? The motor division conducts impulses from the central nervous system to effectors, while the sensory division conducts impulses from sensory receptors to the central nervous system. The motor division conducts impulses from sensory receptors to the central nervous system, while the sensory division controls effectors. The motor division consists of sensory receptors, while the sensory division consists of motor neurons. The motor division is responsible for communication lines between the central nervous system and the body, while the sensory division interprets sensory input.
