Managing Electrical Safety provides an overview of electric basics, hazards, and established standards that enables you to understand the hazards you are likely to encounter in your workplace. Focusing on typical industrial environments—which utilize voltages much higher than household or office circuits—the author identifies the eight key components of an electrical safety program and examines each using a model safety management process. You'll learn how to identify electrical hazards, how to prescribe necessary electrical Personal Protective Equipment, how to ensure that equipment is de-energized, and how to safely plan for work on or around exposed live parts.

NFPA's far-reaching Electrical Safety in the Workplace teaches individuals safe work procedures and provides companies with a process for defining and implementing effective electrical safety programs. The text draws on the authors' 35 years of experience in developing corporate standards and procedures and electrical safety programs, and is up-to-date with the 1999 NEC(R) and NFPA 70E: Electrical Safety Requirements for Employee Workplaces. Chapters cover critical information about electrical hazards and hazard analysis, explain risk exposure management, and discuss NFPA codes and documents published by OSHA, NEMA, UL, and ANSI. Concepts applicable to both commercial and industrial activities include: persuasive statistics on the benefits of electrically safe workplaces, plus proper practices such as lockout/tagout and responsibility of personnel; advice on designing and implementing electrical safety programs; real-life examples and case studies of electrical accidents; and tips on working with safety professionals and effective workplace auditing procedures.Electrical Safety in the Workplace is a must for professionals involved in construction and heavy industry, electrical contractors, and union and trade group trainers.

To compete internationally, electrical installations and equipment must demonstrably comply with modern electrical safety structures required by international legislation governing the supply chain, as well as observing local regulations. The purpose of this book is both to describe the management of electrical safety, i.e. the chief responsible electrical specialist's role including its various aspects and implications, and to provide guidance for creation of an adequate structure. It does not make reference to individual standards or to laws, which are typically national.

Electricity can kill. Every year, the use of electricity on construction sites results in accidents. People suffer electric shocks and burns which can cause serious, sometimes fatal, injuries. Construction sites present a challenging environment for managing electrical safety because: work may be undertaken outdoors in all weathers; frequent movement of plant, tools and materials increases the likelihood of damage to equipment; existing, new and temporary electrical installations may all be present. This second edition contains updated guidance on the precautions to take to reduce the risk of accidents involving electricity on construction sites for anyone planning, arranging or supervising construction work. The guidance is divided into three parts: Part 1 Planning: The pre-construction phase; Part 2 Managing electrical risks: The construction phase; Part 3 Systems and equipment.
