Description

Course DescriptionThis is an introductory electrical safety training course using the latest standards, including OSHA 29 CFR Part 1910, IEEE 1584, NFPA 70E, and NFPA 70 (NEC). Our goal is to help learners become aware of the typical electrical hazards that they may encounter on a job site and what to do about them. In this NFPA 70E certification course, we explore the process for identifying typical electrical hazards with a special focus on shock and arc flash, including how to perform a risk assessment for these identified hazards. We look at OSHA’s stance and enforcement of rules and guidelines that govern electrical safety in the workplace. We also discuss the risk control method of hazard elimination as being a priority in the implementation of any safety-related work practices with the importance of wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) being the last line of defense in protecting the worker. Learners will be exposed to graphic examples of what can happen when electrical incidents occur, and they will leave with a healthy respect for electricity and its potential to cause harm. We will discuss some key steps that they can take to help protect themselves and others. At the conclusion of the course, learners will be expected to complete a test that must be passed with 100% to receive credit for the class. Note: This course is valid for up to 8 PDHs.
