The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is responsible for ensuring the safety of workers in the United States. OSHA’s electrical standards are designed to protect workers from electrocution, fires, and explosions.
OSHA’s electrical standards require employers to provide their employees with safe working conditions. Employers must ensure that all electrical equipment is properly grounded and that all exposed live wires are covered or insulated. Employees must be trained in how to safely work with electricity.
When working with electricity, always follow these basic safety rules: never touch a live wire; always wear proper protective gear, and make sure that all electrical equipment is properly grounded before using it. By following these simple guidelines, you can help keep yourself and your coworkers safe from harm.
