Recognize Electrical Defects Before You Touch

Press play to listen0%
Damaged cords, missing covers and warm panels are warnings that equipment is already failing. • Inspect cords, plugs, strain reliefs and extension leads before every use. Remove anything with exposed conductor, taped repairs or crushed insulation from service. • Keep covers, guards and enclosure seals in place — a missing knockout in a hazardous area breaks the enclosure rating. • Report warm panels, buzzing fittings, repeated tripping or a burning smell, and stop work in that area. • Never reset a tripped breaker more than once without finding out why it tripped. Hazardous area rules: Only equipment rated for the area may be used. A phone, a standard fan or a household extension lead can arc and ignite vapor.
