OSHA electrical safety standards are designed to protect employees exposed
to dangers such as electric shock, electrocution, fires, and explosions. This
is because electricity has long been recognized as a serious workplace
hazard. Electrical safety hazards are addressed in specific OSHA electrical
safety standards for the general industry, shipyard employment, and marine
terminals. OSHA standards, the Regulatory Agenda (a list of actions being
taken with regard to OSHA standards), Federal Registers (rules, proposed
rules, and notices), directives (instructions for compliance officers),
standard interpretations (official letters of interpretation of the
standards), and national consensus standards related to electrical
hazards.

OSHA electrical safety standards are designed for industrial, commercial
and institutional electricians, technicians, and electrical engineers who
must be properly trained in all aspects of safety, maintenance, and operating
procedures in order to do their jobs properly on complex electrical equipment
and systems today.
OSHA electrical standards and the hazards associated with electrical
installations and equipment are the focus of our training course. Gain
knowledge of single and three phase systems, cord and plug connected and
fixed equipment, grounding, ground fault circuit interrupters, hazardous
locations and safety related work practices. Special emphasis is placed on
electrical hazard recognition and OSHA inspection procedures. Topics include:
Personal Protective Equipment, Energized Parts, Electrical Grounding, Medical
Services / First Aid, Hazardous Energy Control (Lock Out).
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.331 - 335 defines "Safety Related Work Practices" for
both qualified and unqualified workers. These regulations cover the scope,
content, and requirements for training and define qualified and unqualified
employees. Safety related work practices covered include: understanding and
and recognizing energized and deenergized parts, lockout and tagging, and
minimum approach distances. The Use of Equipment Section sets forth the
regulations for handling, inspecting and utilizing electrical equipment.
