Can You See What META Sees?
Stare beyond the “Highlights”; find the hidden flaws META spotted.
You See: A breaker disconnect on the wall
META Sees: A breaker panel without 36‖ inch
clearance around the equipment so in case of an
emergency technicians can properly shutdown
the equipment at fault in accordance with NFPA
70e. Also, the floor should be properly marked
and employees must be trained on lockout/tag
out procedures.
You See: A gap in the wall
META Sees: An expansion
joint that must be filled to
prevent leaks between the
two buildings.
You See: Copper drain pipes running along the floor.
META Sees: sloppy pipe work that is not bolted down to
the floor and over time vibration will cause leaks in the
soldered joints. Also, we see exposed hot copper pipes
that require insulation to prevent employee burns.
You See: A regular sterilizer room
META Sees: An untidy room with paper and rags on the
floor...this debris can support combustion in case of a fire.
These areas must always be kept clean.
