What position should draw-out-type circuit breakers be in when they are removed or inserted?

The correct choice is the position that indicates the circuit breaker should be in an "Open position" when it is being removed or inserted. This safety requirement is essential because having the circuit breaker in the open position ensures that the circuit is de-energized, minimizing the risk of electrical shock or short circuits during the handling of the breaker.

Inserting or removing a circuit breaker while it is energized (e.g., in the closed or on position) could create a dangerous situation. An open position indicates that the circuit is safe to work on, as it prevents the flow of electricity through the breaker. This practice is part of standard safety protocols in electrical work, ensuring that technicians can perform their tasks safely without the risk of electrical hazards.
