Description
Electricity is a powerful tool, but it carries serious risks that are often taken for granted. This training program focuses on the two major hazards of working with electricity: electric shock and the intensely dangerous arc flash. Learn what an arc flash is, how it differs from a shock, and the devastating injuries it can cause from extreme heat and a powerful arc blast. We will cover the essential safe work practices, protective equipment, and procedures necessary to prevent these incidents and create an electrically safe working condition.

Key points covered
*Shock vs. Arc Flash*: An explanation of the two major electrical hazards, highlighting the critical differences between an electric shock and a sudden, violent arc flash.
*Electric Shock Prevention*: Simple, everyday practices to reduce your risk of shock, including inspecting tools and cords, avoiding wet conditions, and using non conductive ladders.
*Understanding Arc Flash*: A detailed look at what causes an arc flash, its potential to reach 35,000 degrees Fahrenheit, and the associated arc blast, which can vaporize equipment and throw shrapnel.
*Arc Rated PPE*: Learn about the importance of personal protective equipment, specifically arc rated clothing, and how it is selected to protect workers from an arc flash's intense heat.
*Electrically Safe Working Condition*: An overview of the most effective way to prevent arc flash, which involves de energizing equipment, following lockout/tagout procedures, and testing to verify the power is off.
*Arc Flash Boundary*: Understand what an arc flash boundary is, how it is established, and why only qualified workers with the correct PPE are allowed to cross it.
*Safety for Unqualified Personnel*: Critical safety rules for all employees, including staying clear of electrical work areas, respecting warning labels, and never crossing safety boundaries.
