This two videos represent the introduction to electrical safety for facilities.
In part one we will:
- Look at the effects electricity has on the body based on current, voltage, time, path, and resistance
- Illustrate how electricity behaves and how shock can result
- Discuss the hazards of energized work, give safety recommendations, and illustrate the dangers of shock, arc, and blast
- Demonstrate how to isolate or “clear” parts of an electrical system, look at lockout/tagout procedures, and show how to select and install temporary grounds.
Part One – Electrical Hazards
Part Two – Bonding and Grounding
Part Two covers:
- General requirements for bonding and grounding of electrical installations
- The function of personal protective grounds
- Description of basic design requirements for personal protective grounds
- Demonstration of techniques for installing and removing personal protective grounds – hazards associated with circuit breakers, fuses, transformers, contactors, cables and batteries.
