Typical hazards & measures
Accidental contact with energized components
— Use barriers, covers, and warning signs to isolate energized components. Provide insulated tools and PPE. Conduct training on the risks of energized components and safe work practices.
Overloaded circuits
— Design electrical systems with appropriate load capacities. Install circuit breakers and fuses to prevent overloads. Educate staff on the dangers of overloading circuits.
Vibration damage to equipment
— Use anti-vibration mounts and brackets for equipment in high-vibration areas. Conduct regular inspections for loosened connections or signs of wear. Train employees to identify vibration-related damage.
Improper use of extension cords
— Limit the use of extension cords; when necessary, use only heavy-duty, grounded cords rated for the specific load. Regularly inspect cords for damage. Train employees on proper usage.
Live working hazards.
— Live working is only permitted when no other option is available. Implement strict lockout/tagout procedures to ensure all electrical sources are de-energized before maintenance. Provide insulated tools and PPE such as rubber gloves and mats. Conduct regular training on electrical safety protocols.
