A witness avoids becoming the second casualty
A witness sees a colleague collapsed beside damaged electrical equipment. The supply status is unknown, and another person is preparing to touch the colleague directly. The witness has access to the site’s emergency contact route but has not been trained to use specialist electrical rescue equipment. There is an emergency-stop button nearby, yet its relationship to actual supply isolation has not been established. The exercise asks about preventing additional exposure, communicating useful facts and following qualified response arrangements. It does not provide a medical diagnosis, a safe switching point, permission to enter a hazardous area or proof that a written answer establishes competence to rescue or treat the person.

Actual practical competence, medical judgment and electrical authorization have not been demonstrated. Use the current applicable French framework and employer’s qualified arrangements before any real work.
