    Statistics

    Electrocution: Among most frequent

    causes of occupational injury death in

    US 295 fatalities/year; 4309 lost time

    1992-2002: 9% decrease

    Most frequent cause: Overhead powerlines

    Factors in Fatal Electrocutions

    Safe work practices implemented and

    followed?

    Adequate/required PPE provided and worn? Lockout/tagout procedures implemented and

    followed?

    OSHA, NEC, NESC compliance?

    Worker and supervisor training adequate?

    (from NIOSH)

    Hazard Recognition

    How can you sense electrical danger?

    Cannot see, smell, taste, or hear danger

    Can recognize unsafe conditions

    Electrical Terminology

    Current movement of electrical charge

    Resistance opposition to current flow

    Voltage measure of electrical force Conductors substances with little

    resistance to electricity (such as metals)

    Insulators substances with high resistance

    to electricity (such as wood, rubber, glass, &bakelite)

    Grounding a conductive connection to theearth (which acts as a protective measure)

    Electrical Shock

    Received when current passes through

    body

    Severity depends on: Path of current through body

    Amount of current flowing through body

    Length of time body is in circuitAlso: voltage, moisture, heart cycle, health

    Low voltage is NOT low hazard!

    Dangers of Electrical Shock

    Currents >75 mA* can cause ventricular

    fibrillation (rapid, ineffective heartbeat)

    mA = milliampere = 1/1,000 of an ampere Death within minutes unless a defibrillator

    is used

    75 mA is not much current(a small power drill uses 30 times as much)

  • 7/29/2019 Elec Standards

    10/113

    10 2006 TEEX

    Effects of Current on Body

    1 mA: Perception level, slight tingling.

    5 mA: Slight shock; not painful.

    Can usually let go.

    Involuntary reactions can cause injuries.

    6-30 mA: Painful shock

    Muscular control lost

    Freezing current or let-go range

    11/113

    11 2006 TEEX

    Effects of Current on Body

    50-150 mA: Extreme pain

    Respiratory arrest; cannot let go

    Death possible

    1000-4300 mA: Ventricular fibrillation

    Muscular contraction; nerve damage

    Death likely

    10000 mA: Cardiac arrest

    Severe burns, probable death

    How Shock Happens

    Connection between:

    2 wires of energized circuit

    1 wire of energized circuit and ground Metallic part in contact with energized wire

    and ground

    Inadequate Wiring Hazards

    What happens when a wire is too small

    to carry the current safely?

    Overheating Risk of fire or short circuit

    Fuse acts as sacrificial

    weak link Fuse too strong?

    Other parts of the system

    break first
