Electrical hazards and Prevention

During my profession of operation and maintenance for the Captive Diesel generator Power plants, I have performed many electrical accidents investigations. Fortunately, the accidents were minor usually exposed wire giving a shock.

Electrocution is one of the major causes of such accidents in the power plant and construction industry.

I am listing below a few crucial causes of injuries caused due to carelessness and bypassing the electrical safeties’.

  1. Power lines Contact
  2. No protection for Ground fault
  3. Discontinuation of grounding / Earthlings
  4. Misuse of instrument
  5. Improper use of extension cords

What is the Importance of working safely with electricity?

 The safe working with electricity is required to prevent the causality due to electrocution by voltage of electricity and the electrical current.

What should a person know about electricity?

An electrical system can cause potential harm to the living beings. Electricity is of two types, Static electricity and dynamic electricity.  In the dynamic electricity, electrons move through a conductor known as the current. Conductors are the metals through which movement of electrons take place. Human body is also a conductor.

What are the injuries resulting from electrical currents?

There are following four main types of injuries caused by electrical currents

1.    Electrocution (Fatal)

2.    Electric Shock

3.    Burns

4.    Falls

What are safety tips for working with or near electricity?

  • Carry out the inspection of portable cords and plugs , connected equipments, extension cords, power bars, and electrical fittings for any damage before use. Replace or repair the damaged equipment at once.
  • Use to tapes for securing the equipment with walls or floor. Never use nails or staples since they will cause the damage to extension cords and will be hazardous for fire and shocks.
  • Always use the appropriate rating of amperage and watts being used.
  • Use the correct capacity of fuse. Using the wrong fuse with higher capacity may cause the flow of excessive current and leading to start of fire.
  • Any hot outlet or cords will indicate the existence unsafe wiring condition. Unplug such cords or extension from these outlets. Call the qualified electrician and get it repaired or replaced.
  • Always use the ladders with non-conductive side rails made from fibreglass while working with electricity power lines.
  • Never keep the clothes or any combustible material near to Halogen lamp, since halogen lamp can become hot and ultimate a fire hazars.
  • • Wet areas are electric shock prone and always Install Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) as they will interrupt the electrical circuit before a current sufficient to cause death or serious injury occurs.
  • Use a portable in-line Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) if you are not certain that the receptacle you are plugging your extension cord into is GFCI protected.
  • Use the exposed receptacle boxes made of non-conductive materials.
  • Know the location of panel and circuit breakers in case of an emergency.
  • Carry out the proper labelling of all circuit breakers and fuse boxes. Each switch should be positively identified as to which outlet or appliance it is for.
  • Don’t use the outlets or cords with exposed pr naked wiring.
  • Don’t use the unguarded portable cord-and-plug connected power tools
  • Access to panels and circuit breakers or fuse boxes should be unrestricted.
  • Do not touch a person or electrical apparatus in the event of an electrical incident. Always disconnect the power source first.

What action is required by any one if happens to come close to power lines?1.    Call the electrical utility company for help

1.    Call the electrical utility company for help

2.    If your vehicle comes in contact with a power line;

  • Don’t attempt to get out of vehicle

  • Wait for electrical utility to come and follow their advice to come out.
  • In case your vehicle catches fire, than jump out of vehicle as far as possible. Never touch the vehicle and move away immediately by shuffling you feet closely.
  • Shuffle at least 10 meters away from the vehicle before taking the normal step.
  • Don’t enter the electrical power substation or other marked area.
