For an Alarm Reset incident, which responder is specified?

• A. Rescue Unit
• B. Engine or Aerial
• C. Hazmat Team
• D. Bike Unit

Answer: (B)

Alarm reset tasks require a unit that can access the building, reach the fire alarm control panel, and coordinate safety while returning the system to normal. The engine or aerial is specified because they arrive with the reach, access, and scene-control capabilities needed to reset the alarm panel and verify the area is safe. They can also communicate with building staff and manage the scene until the system is stable. Other units focus on different missions—rescue teams on people in danger, hazmat teams on hazardous materials, and bike units on rapid response or traffic control—so they aren’t designated for alarm reset duties.
