Control of Hazardous Energies Standard / V5 DRAFT REVIEW - Oct 2025

Facilitate a learning activity with the participants about the advantages of voltage testing with a two- pole tester

Present the voltage rating and category (e.g., 600 V / Cat. IV) for electrical measurement equipment

Ask the participants open ended questions about the voltage rating and category (e.g., 600 V / Cat. IV) for electrical measurement equipment

Facilitate exercises for participants in how to select a voltage detector appropriate for measuring voltage at a given point in a circuit and give constructive feedback throughout this practice

Facilitate exercises for participants in performing pre-use check of the electrical measurement equipment and give constructive feedback to the participants throughout this practice

Explain the principles behind the 'Prove-Test-Prove' method, its role in electrical safety and the importance of verifying test equipment functionality before and after use

Conduct a demonstration of the 'Prove-Test-Prove' method using a calibrated Voltage Detector, emphasising the procedural steps and highlight potential errors and risks such as:

a. using unverified test instruments, failing to check all phases, misinterpreting test results.

Lead participants in a scenario-based fault simulation to test participants’ ability to correctly apply the 'Prove-Test-Prove' method.

The participants shall:

Engage in discussions and share understandings about:

a. the reasons why electrical measurement equipment needs to be maintained and approved

b. why electrical measurement equipment needs to be company approved

c. why electrical measurement equipment needs to be approved for a given task

Engage in the group discussions and share understandings about the requirements for tools to be used for testing for the absence of voltage

Engage in the group discussions and share understandings about the hazards of using a multimeter for absence of voltage testing and how to reduce the associated risks of these hazards

Engage in the involving learning activity and share understandings about the advantages of voltage testing with a two-pole tester

Engage in answering questions and share understandings about the voltage rating and category (e.g. 600 V / Cat. IV) for electrical measurement equipment
