Where must the ITM tag be attached after service?

• A. On the main panel
• B. In the file cabinet
• C. In the switchgear cabinet
• D. Attached to the respective riser of each system

Answer: (D)

The ITM tag records that a system has been inspected, tested, and maintained, and it must stay with the specific system it documents. It should be attached to the riser of each system so the service history is immediately visible for that exact system. Placing the tag on a main panel, a file cabinet, or a switchgear cabinet would detach it from the system it pertains to, making it easy to overlook or misapply during future inspections, especially when multiple systems exist. For facilities with several sprinkler systems, each system’s riser gets its own ITM tag, ensuring clear, per-system accountability and easy reference for dates, technician initials, and next due service.
