ELECTRICAL PPE

20-30 min.

The aim of this lesson is to enable the participants to reduce the risk of injury for themselves and others by being able to pre-use check the correct and required PPE for performing electrical work.

After having successfully completed this lesson, participants can:

Solve the challenge of how to pre-use check the correct electrical PPE for a given task defined as electrical work in the wind industry (Ability, intermediate level).

ELEMENT 3.1 - ELECTRICAL PPE

Learning objectives:

Participants can describe the minimum electrical PPE for a given task defined as electrical work in the wind industry (Knowledge, basic level). Participants can recognise that the requirements for arc flash PPE depends on each situation as well as the importance of finding the specific site (or turbine specific) requirements if arc flash PPE is required for a task (Knowledge, basic level).

Participants can perform pre-use checks of PPE for electrical work (Skills, intermediate level).

Participants can explain how to store and maintain the electrical PPE (Knowledge, intermediate level).

The instructor shall:

Lead a discussion with the participants about what is the minimum electrical PPE for common task(s) defined as electrical work in the wind industry and the importance of referring to the corresponding work instruction as a reference for the PPE to be used. minimum electrical PPE: non-melting clothing to include long pants and long sleeves, safety glasses and safety footwear that fully covers the feet.

Note: Electrical PPE will be revisited as part of the electrical safe working practices

The participants shall:

Engage in the discussion and share understandings about what is the minimum electrical PPE for common task(s) defined as electrical work in the wind industry.

The instructor shall:

Present how the requirements for arc flash PPE are depending on each situation and highlight the importance of finding the specific site or turbine specific requirements if arc flash PPE is required.
