Practice question

  1. Ask the system engineer to verify the junior engineer's observation before acting.
  2. Check the test procedure to see if this failure mode is a defined abort criterion.
  3. Acknowledge the callout and immediately execute the Emergency Shutdown Procedure.
  4. Tell the junior engineer to stand by while you attempt to visually confirm the rupture.
