Electrical Safety with NFPA 70E and OSHA

The NFPA 70E standard requires training every 3 years

Compliance

Compliance with NFPA 70E helps you provide a safe workplace and comply with OSHA 29 CFR 1910-331 through 1910-335.

OSHA, NFPA 70E and Your Company Policy

  • Learn how to find the information you need
  • Understand the relationship between these three

Understanding Electrical Hazards

  • Shock, arc and blast
  • Touch and step potential
  • Fault current
  • Grounding and bonding
  • Overcurrent protection

Safe Work Practices

  • Determine risk level using hierarchy of controls
  • Identify exposed live parts and nominal voltage
  • Restrictions for working on exposed energized electrical components
  • Recognize and manage approach boundaries, including use of barricades
  • Determine flash boundaries
  • Correctly select and maintain PPE clothing, gloves and tools
  • Lockout / Tagout
  • De-energizing equipment and releasing victims
  • Effective grounding
  • Safe work practices, including cords and GFCI's
  • Job briefings, safety planning, risk mitigation and electrical safe work permits

Math is key for accurate determination of the arc flash boundaries required by NFPA 70E and Federal regulations.  Complex formulas can be overwhelming unless the instructor can simplify the process, and we have a knack for making complex math easy for most students.
