Where are the radioactive devices mostly kept? Correct Answer In the basement

Devices using radioactivity is mostly kept in the basement. This allows for the radiation to be controlled and reduces the risk of massive exposure in case of a leak. In case the device breaks down, then also the risk of injury and damage is reduced if the equipment is in the basement.
