Safe work practices in the real world

摘要

Safety and electrical training are not an option. There are legal as well as ethical and social responsibilities to reasonably provide information for protection of people. Both high energy and shock hazards must be identified. The amount of training required depends on the frequency and level of exposure to electrical systems. Three different levels are identified for nonelectrical skills. These can be grouped as painter level, mechanic level, and operator level. Minimum time is required for these services. Operators that must check fuses require more training. A hands-on approach is most effective. The time is divided between class time for explanations and actual performance of the task. Checklists and appropriate safety equipment are essential. Periodic follow-up checks are necessary to correct weak habits and as a safety reminder.
