Shocking Statistics
The fifth leading cause of accidental death in the
U.S. is electrocution*
Every 24 hours, someone is electrocuted in their
home**
Every 36 hours, someone is electrocuted in the

Electrical Injuries
Electric Shock
Diagram showing how electric shock occurs: The severity of electric shock
depends on the current flowing through the body (I) in Ampere, which is
a function of the electromotive force (E) in volts, and the contact
resistance (R) in ohms.

The
tool will draw more current than the cord can handle,
causing overheating and a possible fire without tripping the
circuit breaker
The circuit breaker could be the right size for the circuit but
not for the smaller-wire extension cord
The wire must be able to handle the current. Its insulation must
be appropriate for the voltage and tough enough for the
environment

Energized Work
EXEMPTION 1
De-energizing introduces additional or increased hazards. Examples
include interruption of life support equipment, deactivation of emergency
alarm systems, shutdown of hazardous location ventilation equipment, or
removal of illumination for an area.
EXEMPTION 2
De-energizing is infeasible due to equipment design or operational
limitations. Examples include testing of electrical circuits that can only be
performed with the circuit energized, and work on circuits that form an
integral part of a continuous industrial process in a chemical plant that
would otherwise need to be completely shutdown in order to permit work
on one circuit or piece of equipment.
EXEMPTION 3
Live parts that operate at less than 50V to ground need not be deenergized if there will be no increased exposure to electrical burns or to
explosion due to electric arcs.

Lockout/Tagout
(when servicing equipment)
First, stop the current flow from the circuit through the victim's body, if
it hasn't already been done.
Often, victims are unable to pull away from the source of current.
If the victim is still in contact with the current, disconnect or deenergize the circuit, if possible.
If this cannot be accomplished, obtain a nonconductive item, such as
dry clothing, dry rope or a dry stick, and remove the victim from the
source of the current.
Then call or send for help.
Next, check to see if the victim's heart or breathing has stopped.
Give the required first aid until professional help arrives.

10 COMMON MISTAKES
1. Thinking that it's "only 120 volts" or 208 volts or 480 volts or...
2. Working on energized systems or equipment when it can be deenergized
3. Not wearing PPE
4. Outdated or defective test equipment to troubleshoot
5. Not wearing the right PPE
6. Trusting someone else for your safety
7. Not performing required maintenance of power system equipment.
8. Not carrying your gloves with you
9. Not using a proper documentation system
10. Going to sleep during safety training or SPKI lecture!
