I've worked on all those systems and troubleshot all those systems. Basic safety concerns with each are HVAC refrigerant types, electrical depends on the voltage being worked at, plumbing depends on the pressure system type and I'm going to pick fire safety systems, where you have fault sensor heads or the fire suppression system doesn't work.
