NFPA 110 relates to which aspect of safety?

Identification of piping systems
Emergency and standby power systems
Thermal environmental conditions
Color codes and signs

The correct answer is: Emergency and standby power systems

NFPA 110 specifically addresses emergency and standby power systems. This standard provides guidelines for the installation, maintenance, and testing of these systems to ensure that they operate effectively in emergencies. The focus is on ensuring that healthcare facilities and other essential services can maintain power during outages or disruptions, which is critical for patient care and safety. A robust framework of standards like NFPA 110 ensures that emergency power systems are reliable, ensuring that vital services can continue uninterrupted. This encompasses not only the initial design and installation of generators and similar equipment but also ongoing maintenance and performance testing to confirm their reliability when they are most needed. The other topics mentioned in the choices pertain to different aspects of safety and operational protocols, but they do not fall under the specific scope of NFPA 110. This clarification helps to reinforce the unique and critical role that the standard plays in safeguarding against power failures in essential services, particularly within healthcare settings.
