How should potable water lines be identified as per the guidelines when tags are used?

Yellow triangle
Circle tags
Square stickers
Equilateral triangle tags

The correct answer is: Equilateral triangle tags

The correct identification for potable water lines is through the use of equilateral triangle tags. This method aligns with industry standards and best practices for marking pipes to ensure clarity and safety. Equilateral triangle tags are widely recognized and effectively communicate that the line contains drinking water, helping to prevent confusion with other types of pipelines, such as those carrying non-potable fluids. Such visual identification is crucial in avoiding cross-contamination and ensuring that individuals working on or around these pipes know exactly what type of substance the lines carry. This standardization is important not just for the safety of the plumbing systems but also for public health.
