You must assume everything in the statement to be true and on the basis of the information given in the statement, decide which of the following course(s) of action logically follow(s) for pursuing. Statement: Voltage fluctuation in A’s home has damaged many of his new electrical appliances. Courses of action: I) A should consult an electrician and install a device to safeguard appliances against fluctuations in voltage. II) A must replace all the appliances.Solution
Given the statement, "Voltage fluctuation in A’s home has damaged many of his new electrical appliances," we can consider the following courses of action: I) A should consult an electrician and install a device to safeguard appliances against fluctuations in voltage.
- This course of action is logical because consulting an electrician and installing a voltage stabilizer or surge protector can help prevent further damage to appliances due to voltage fluctuations. It addresses the root cause of the problem and provides a solution to prevent future damage.
- While it might seem drastic to replace all the appliances, it may not be necessary if a solution can be implemented to protect them from voltage fluctuations. Additionally, replacing all appliances without addressing the underlying issue of voltage fluctuation may lead to the same problem occurring again with the new appliances.
