Electrical Safety Training
The National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) codes are used as a basis for the safety regulations by government agencies such as the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). New OSHA and NFPA 70E codes require stricter arc flash hazard safety regulations. The 70E (“Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace”) calls for more safety-related work practices, safety-related maintenance requirements, and requirements for special equipment.
Shawver & Son, Inc. is one of the few electrical contractors in Oklahoma that performs arc flash hazard analyses and the associated training. We can educate you and your workers about arc flash safety requirements and procedures.
Lunch & Learn
Electrical arc flash protection and regulations, as described in the NFPA 70E, are designed to save lives, eliminate disabling injuries, and prevent damage to facility structures and equipment. Every day in the United States an average of five workers are electrocuted, and seven suffer serious burn injuries. Shawver & Son offers regularly scheduled, hands-on educational seminars to ensure the safety of your workers and security for your workplace. The Lunch & Learn is an hour and a half class that seeks to broaden the client’s knowledge of electrical arc flash hazards, associated government regulations, and proactive safety practices.
During this informative 90 minutes the participant will gain a clear understanding of:
- Causes and dangers of an electrical arc flash
- Arc Flash hazard reduction and minimization
- Steps in performing an arc flash hazard assessment
- Proper selection of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
- Energized work permit requirements
Training is not only for electricians. This electrical arc flash safety Lunch & Learn is designed to educate anyone who works with or around energized electrical systems operating over 50V.
