Electrical Safety Handbook<br />
for Arc Flash & Shock<br />
<strong>Product</strong> Code 9295<br />
NEW!<br />
This Electrical Safety Handbook for Arc Flash and Shock is intended to be used<br />
in conjunction with a management system (e.g. see ANSI Z10 or CSA Z1000)<br />
based Electrical Safety Program that provides more detailed policies and<br />
practices for energized electrical work. This Handbook contains useful information<br />
with respect to the specification, care, use, maintenance, testing and pre-use inspection<br />
requirements of Electrical Specific PPE, Tools & Equipment that can be used to reduce<br />
exposure of risk to electrical shock and arc flash. The Handbook is intended to be used<br />
with the associated Inspection checklists for Electrical Specific PPE: Everyday Wear, and<br />
Arc Flash Suits. Tools & Equipment used must also be pre-use inspected by the user to<br />
ensure they are suitable for use.<br />
Electrical Specific PPE, Tools & Equipment should be inspected before every use, and<br />
when within an inventory management system they should be inspected at an acceptable<br />
frequency to ensure that when the PPE, Tools & Equipment are required they are available<br />
and fit for use. When an inventory inspection is performed the storage location, the use<br />
of separate storage bags, and tagging of lockers, storage bags, PPE, Tools & Equipment<br />
referenced in procedures and in PMs should be checked as well as ensuring where<br />
applicable that the PPE, Tool or piece of Equipment has been third party tested within<br />
acceptable frequencies. Where Electrical Specific PPE, Tools & Equipment are shared a<br />
Check In and Check Out system should be established and audited to ensure that it is<br />
being followed.<br />
For guidance on selecting suitable arc flash protective clothing and shock PPE, Tools &<br />
Equipment please refer to CSA Z462 Workplace electrical safety Standard or NFPA 70E<br />
Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace.<br />
It is noted that this Handbook doesn’t preclude the need for formal training (e.g.<br />
classroom, online, on the job) on the specification, care, use and maintenance of Electrical<br />
Specific PPE, Tools & Equipment. Additionally the Supervisor of the worker using the PPE,<br />
Tools & Equipment should <strong>com</strong>plete Supervisory level inspections/audits to ensure that<br />
workers are <strong>com</strong>petent in the care, use and maintenance requirements.<br />
The user of this Handbook should refer to the most recent versions of CSA Z462 and/<br />
or NFPA 70E and should confirm Clause, Article and Table numbers referenced in this<br />
Handbook based on the current edition of the referenced Standard.<br />
