Question 161Refrigeration & AC - 1st Asst/Chief

The correct answer is C) goggles and gloves. Personnel servicing refrigeration systems that expose them to commonly used refrigerants should wear goggles and gloves as personal protective equipment. This is to protect their eyes and skin from potential splashes or exposure to the refrigerants, which can be hazardous. An all-purpose gas mask (A) would be overkill, rubber-soled shoes (B) would not provide the necessary protection, and a respirator (D) is not required for this type of work unless there is a risk of inhaling the refrigerants.
