    Introduction

    • his booklet provides an overview of basic electrical safety on the job.
    • Electricity is essential to modern life, both at home and on the job. Some employees — engineers, electricians, electronic technicians, and power line workers, among them — work with electricity directly. Others, such as office workers and sales people, work with it indirectly. …
    • …
  7. Page 7

    Why should you be concerned about electrical hazards?

    • Electricity has long been recognized as a serious workplace hazard, exposing employees to electric shock, electrocution, burns, fires, and explosions. In 1999, for example, 278 workers died from electrocutions at work, accounting for almost 5 percent of all on-the-job fatalities that year, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. …
    • …
  8. Page 8

    What OSHA standards address electrical safety?

    • OSHA standards cover many electrical hazards in many different industries. OSHA’s general industry electrical safety standards are published in Title 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 1910.302 through 1910.308 — Design Safety Standards for Electrical Systems, and 1910.331 through 1910.335 — Electrical Safety-Related Work Practices Standards.
    • …
  9. Page 9

    How do OSHA’s standards minimize electrical hazards?

    • OSHA standards focus on the design and use of electrical equipment and systems. The standards cover only the exposed or operating elements of an electrical installation such as lighting, equipment, motors, machines, appliances, switches, controls, and enclosures, requiring that they be constructed and installed to minimize workplace electrical dangers. …

    Electricity: The Basics

    • What affects the flow of electricity?
    • Electricity flows more easily through some materials than others. Some substances such as metals generally offer very little resistance to the flow of electric current and are called “conductors.” A common but perhaps overlooked conductor is the surface or subsurface of the earth. …
    • …
  11. Page 11

    What effect do shocks have on the body?

    • electric circuit. This can cause an electrical shock. Shocks occur when a person’s body completes the current path with:
    • both wires of an electric circuit;
    • one wire of an energized circuit and the ground;
    • a metal part that accidentally becomes energized due, for example, to a break in its insulation; or
    • another “conductor” that is carrying a current.
    • …

    Effects of Electric Current in the Human Body

    • Current
    • Reaction
    • Below 1 milliampere
    • Generally not perceptible
    • 1 milliampere
    • Faint tingle
    • 5 milliamperes
    • Slight shock felt; not painful but disturbing. Average individual can let go. Strong involuntary reactions can lead to other injuries.
    • 6–25 milliamperes (women) Painful shock, loss of muscular control*
    • 9–30 milliamperes (men)
    • …
  13. Page 13

    What kind of burns can a shock cause?

    • Burns are the most common shock-related injury.
    • An electrical accident can result in an electrical burn, arc burn, thermal contact burn, or a combination of burns.
    • Electrical burns are among the most serious burns and require immediate medical attention. They occur when electric current flows through tissues or bone, generating heat that causes tissue damage.
    • …
  14. Page 14

    What should you do if someone “freezes” to a live electrical contact?

    • The longer the exposure, the greater the risk of serious injury. Longer exposures at even relatively low voltages can be just as dangerous as short exposures at higher voltages. Low voltage does not imply low hazard.
    • In addition to muscle contractions that cause “freezing,” electrical shocks also can cause involuntary muscle reactions. …
    • …
  15. Page 15

    What is the danger of static electricity?

    • Static electricity also can cause a shock, though in a different way and generally not as potentially severe as the type of shock described previously. Static electricity can build up on the surface of an object and, under the right conditions, can discharge to a person, causing a shock.
    • The most familiar example of this is when a person reaches for a door knob or other metal…

    Protection Against Electrical Hazards

    • What is the best way to protect yourself against electrical hazards?
    • Most electrical accidents result from one of the following three factors:
    • unsafe equipment or installation,
    • unsafe environment, or
    • unsafe work practices.
    • Some ways to prevent these accidents are through the use of insulation, guarding, grounding, electrical protective devices, and safe work practices.
    • …
  17. Page 17

    What is guarding and what protection does it offer?

    • Before connecting electrical equipment to a power source, it’s a good idea to check the insulation for any exposed wires for possible defects. Insulation covering flexible cords such as extension cords is particularly vulnerable to damage.
    • The insulation that covers conductors in non-construction applications is regulated by Subpart S of 29 CFR 1910.302 through…
    • …
  18. Page 18

    What is grounding and what protection does it offer?

    • “Grounding” a tool or electrical system means intentionally creating a low-resistance path that connects to the earth. This prevents the buildup of voltages that could cause an electrical accident.
    • Grounding is normally a secondary protective measure to protect against electric shock. It does not guarantee that you won’t get a shock or be injured or killed by an…
    • …
  19. Page 19

    What are circuit protection devices and how do they work?

    • Circuit protection devices limit or stop the flow of current automatically in the event of a ground fault, overload, or short circuit in the wiring system. Well-known examples of these devices are fuses, circuit breakers, ground-fault circuit interrupters, and arc-fault circuit interrupters.
    • …
  20. Page 20

    What work practices help protect you against electrical hazards?

    • Electrical accidents are largely preventable through safe work practices. Examples of these practices include the following:
    • deenergizing electric equipment before inspection or repair,
    • keeping electric tools properly maintained,
    • exercising caution when working near energized lines, and
    • using appropriate protective equipment.
    • …
  21. Page 21

    How can you prevent an accidental or unexpected equipment startup?

    • Another form of protection is to use listed or labeled portable tools and appliances protected by an approved system of double insulation or its equivalent. Where such a system is employed, it must be marked distinctively to indicate that the tool or appliance uses an approved double insulation system.
    • …
  22. Page 22

    How can you protect yourself from overhead power lines?

    • Before working under or near overhead power lines, ensure that you maintain a safe distance to the lines and, for very high-voltage lines, ground any equipment such as cranes that can become energized. If working on power lines, ensure that the lines have been deenergized and grounded by the owner or operator of the lines. …
    • …
  23. Page 23

    What protection does personal equipment offer?

    • Employees who work directly with electricity should use the personal protective equipment required for the jobs they perform. This equipment may include rubber insulating gloves, hoods, sleeves, matting, blankets, line hose, and industrial protective helmets designed to reduce electric shock hazard. All help reduce the risk of electrical accidents.
    • What role do tools play?
    • …
  24. Page 24

    What’s the value of a safety and health program in controlling electrical hazards?

    • Every good safety and health program provides measures to control electrical hazards. The measures suggested in this booklet should be helpful in establishing such a program. The responsibility for this program should be delegated to someone with a complete knowledge of electricity, electrical work practices, and the appropriate OSHA…
    • …
  25. Page 25

    How Can OSHA Help Me?

    • OSHA can provide extensive help through a variety of programs, including assistance about safety and health programs, state plans, workplace consultations, voluntary protection programs, strategic partnerships, training and education, and more.
    • How does safety and health program management assistance help employers and employees?
    • …
  26. Page 26

    What are state plans?

    • State plans are OSHA-approved job safety and health programs operated by individual states or territories instead of Federal OSHA. The Occupational Safety and Health
    • Act of 1970 (OSH Act) encourages states to develop and operate their own job safety and health plans and permits state enforcement of OSHA standards if the state has an approved plan. …
    • …
  27. Page 27

    Who can get consultation assistance and what does it cost?

    • Consultation assistance is available to small employers (with fewer than 250 employees at a fixed site and no more than 500 corporatewide) who want help in establishing and maintaining a safe and healthful workplace.
    • Funded largely by OSHA, the service is provided at no cost to the employer. Primarily developed for smaller employers with more hazardous…
    • …
  28. Page 28

    Does OSHA provide any incentives for seeking consultation assistance?

    • Yes. Under the consultation program, certain exemplary employers may request participation in OSHA’s Safety and Health Achievement Recognition Program (SHARP). Eligibility for participation in SHARP includes, but is not limited to, receiving a full-service, comprehensive consultation visit, correcting all identified hazards, and developing an…
    • …
  29. Page 29

    How does the Voluntary Protection Program work?

    • There are three levels of VPPs: Star, Merit, and Demonstration. All are designed to do the following:
    • recognize employers who have successfully developed and implemented effective and comprehensive safety and health management systems;
    • encourage these employers to continuously improve their safety and health management systems;
    • …
  30. Page 30

    How does OSHA monitor VPP sites?

    • OSHA reviews an employer’s VPP application and conducts a VPP onsite evaluation to verify that the safety and health management systems described are operating effectively at the site. OSHA conducts onsite evaluations on a regular basis, annually for participants at the Demonstration level, every 18 months for Merit, and every 3 to 5 years for Star. …
    • …
  31. Page 31

    What is OSHA’s Strategic Partnership Program (OSPP)?

    • OSHA Strategic Partnerships are alliances among labor, management, and government to foster improvements in workplace safety and health. These partnerships are voluntary, cooperative relationships between OSHA, employers, employee representatives, and others such as trade unions, trade and professional associations, universities, and other government agencies. …
    • …
  32. Page 32

    What are the benefits of participation in the OSPP?

    • OSHA is interested in creating new OSPPs at the national, regional, and local levels. OSHA also has found limited partnerships to be valuable. Limited partnerships might address the elimination or control of a specific industry hazard.
    • Like VPP, OSPP can mean the following:
    • fewer worker fatalities, injuries, and illnesses;
    • …
  33. Page 33

    Does OSHA have occupational safety and health training for employers and employees?

    • Yes. The OSHA Training Institute in Des Plaines, IL, provides basic and advanced training and education in safety and health for federal and state compliance officers, state consultants, other federal agency personnel, and privatesector employers, employees, and their representatives.
    • …
  34. Page 34

    Does OSHA give money to organizations for training and education?

    • OSHA awards grants through its Susan Harwood Training Grant Program to nonprofit organizations to provide safety and health training and education to employers and workers in the workplace. The grants focus on programs that will educate workers and employers in small business (fewer than 250 employees), training workers and employers about new OSHA…
    • …
  35. Page 35

    Does OSHA have other assistance materials available?

    • OSHA has a variety of materials and tools available on its website at www.osha.gov.
