Why Should You Attend:
NFPA 70E specifies the various requirements for safe work practices which will protect personnel from major electrical hazards. It was originally developed at OSHA's request, NFPA 70E helps companies and employees avoid fatal exposure and hence avoid workplace injuries and fatalities due to shock, electrocution, arc flash, and arc blast, and assists in complying with OSHA 1910 Subpart S and OSHA 1926 Subpart K.
This standard addresses electrical safety-related work practices, safety-related maintenance requirements, and other administrative controls for employee workplaces that are necessary for the practical safeguarding of employees relative to the hazards associated with electrical energy during activities such as the installation, inspection, operation, maintenance, and demolition of electric conductors, electric equipment, signaling and communications conductors and equipment, and raceways. The revised standard introduces human factors, such as human error, as part of the risk assessment process.
Attendees will learn the basics of electrical safety, and overview of NFPA 70E and also there will be explanation on how to conduct safety audit.
Areas Covered in the Webinar:
Installation of conductors and equipment that connect to the supply of electricity
Installations used by the electric utility, such as office buildings, warehouses, garages, machine shops, and recreational buildings that are not an integral part of a generating plant, substation, or control center
How to establish an institutional electrical safety program
Introduction to NFPA 70E
Lockout/tagout
Electrician safety
User safety
Costs of engineering services
