TITLE:
INTRODUCTION OF ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARDS AND
SAFETY OF ELECTRIC EQUIPMENT

OBJECTIVE:
Recognize the importance to study electric shock hazards and
safety of Electric Equipment.
Introduction
Electrical Shock Hazards
The major hazards associated with electricity are electrical
shock, fire and arc flash. Electrical shock occurs when the
body becomes part of the electric circuit, either when an
individual comes in contact with both wires of an electrical
circuit, one wire of an energized circuit and the ground, or a
metallic part that has become energized by contact with an
electrical conductor.

Electrical Safety
Electrically powered equipment can pose a significant hazard to workers, particularly
when mishandled or not maintained. Many electrical devices have high voltage or high-
power requirements, carrying even more risk.

Precaution:
 Don't work with electricity if your hands, feet, or
other body parts are wet or when standing on a
wet floor.

 Inspect electrical equipment (with power off and


unplugged) for frayed cords and damaged
connections -- if any are found, do not use the
equipment -- report it to the appropriate person
for repairs.
 Never attempt to repair electrical equipment yourself - it must be done by
qualified staff.

 If you receive even a mild shock from a piece of equipment, turn it in for repair
immediately.

 Don't use or store highly flammable liquids near electrical equipment -- some
materials, such as ether, can be ignited by sparks from electrical equipment.

 Use 3-prong plugs for 3-prong receptacles -- never break off or alter a 3-prong
plug to fit into an outlet.

 Extension cords should not be used in place of permanent wiring -- their use
should be temporary and they should not be run under doors, across walkways,
through windows or holes in the wall, around pipes or near sinks.

 Don't overload circuits by using power strips or multiple outlets on regular


sockets.

 Don't remove or alter safety features of high voltage equipment -- it is there to
