ELEMENT 4.6 - TOOLS

Learning objectives:

The participants can distinguish between insulated (voltage-rated) tools and tools that are not insulated (Skills, intermediate level). The participants can distinguish between when to use and when not to use insulated, approved tools for work around live electrical energy sources (Skills, intermediate level).

The participants can select the right approved tool for a given task (Skills, advanced level).

The instructor shall:

Explain and demonstrate how to differentiate between insulated (voltage-rated) tools and tools that are not insulated (voltage-rated). Facilitate practice for the participants in distinguishing between insulated (voltage-rated) tools and tools that are not insulated (voltage-rated) and give constructive feedback to the participants throughout the practice.

The participants shall:

Engage in the exercise and practice of distinguishing between insulated (voltage-rated) tools and tools that are not insulated (voltage-rated).

The instructor shall:

Facilitate guided practice for the participants in choosing when (and when not) to use insulated, approved tools for work around live electrical energy sources and give constructive feedback to the participants throughout the practice. Note: Insulated, approved tools are mandatory when performing energised work (in extraordinary circumstances under an approved special permit) that requires using the tools inside the Limited Approach Boundary or Restricted Approach Boundary.

The participants shall:

Engage in the practice of choosing when (and when not) to use insulated, approved tools for work around live electrical energy sources.

The instructor shall:

Create exercise(s) for the participants to practise selecting the right approved tool for a given task which is considered electrical work and give constructive feedback to the participants throughout the practice.

The participant shall:
