Electrical Safety seminar is about learning how to reduce your personal risk of injury and how companies can protect their employees from accident, injury and death..

Our Electrical Safety seminar will focus on existing (NFPA 70e) Arc Flash Stadards and the development and introduction of Canadian standards (CSA Z462) and legislation that is being developed and WILL BE enacted and enforced in Canada. Leading experts on Arc Flash and Arc Blast Hazard Protection and Mitigation will present new content NOT covered in our previous forums and report on recent code revisions from NEC and NFPA, OSHA, the NEC, the Canadian Electrical Code, U.S. State and Canadian provincial labour laws

We will also discuss general electrical safety principles and will train delegates on how to best develop an effective electrical safety program. Between these two elements, there will be plenty of examples and exercises for delegates to follow and then take back and apply to their electrical safety work practices.

From our Electrical Safety seminar you will:

  • Define short circuits and electrical arcs.
  • Understand electrical safety parameters.
  • Determine energy released during a short circuit and why you need to be protected.
  • Learn techniques for reducing potential explosive energy.
  • Learn how to protect yourself and those around you from electrical hazards.
  • Learn how to select proper personal protective equipment (PPE) for the right environment.

Dangers such as shock, electrocution, and arc blast will always be present on the job, but proper training and safety strategies can minimize the likelihood of injuries and fatalities. NFPA 70E - Electrical Safety in the Workplace - covers the full range of electrical safety issues from work practices to maintenance, special equipment requirements, and installation. In fact, OSHA in the United States already bases its electrical safety mandates on the comprehensive information in this important Standard. THIS STANDARD FOR ELECTRICAL SAFETY PROTECTION IS BEING ADOPTED IN CANADA (AS CSA Z462) AND IT IS ADVISABLE THAT ALL CANADIAN COMPANIES BECOME FAMILIAR WITH ARC FLASH STANDARDS AND PRACTICES AND COMPLIANT WITH THE REQUIREMENTS
