Categories of work in electrical installations in relation to safety measures

4.5. In electrical installations with voltages up to 1000 V, when working under voltage, it is necessary to:

relieve voltage from other live parts located near the workplace that are energized, which may be accidentally touched, or protect them;

work in dielectric galoshes or standing on an insulating stand or on a rubber dielectric carpet;

use an insulated tool (screwdrivers must have an insulated shaft) or use dielectric gloves.

It is not allowed to work in clothes with short or rolled up sleeves, or to use hacksaws, files, or metal meters.

4.6. It is not allowed to work in electrical installations in a bent position if, when straightened, the distance to live parts is less than the distance specified in Table No. 1.

When working near unprotected live parts, it is not allowed to be positioned so that these parts are behind the worker or on both sides of him.

4.7. It is not allowed to touch insulators or insulating parts of live equipment without using electrical protective equipment.

4.8. In crossing spans in outdoor switchgear and on overhead lines, when replacing wires (cables) and related insulators and fittings located below live wires, ropes made of vegetable or synthetic fibers. The ropes should be thrown in two places - on both sides of the intersection, securing their ends to anchors and structures. Lifting the wire (cable) should be done slowly and smoothly.

4.9. Work in the outdoor switchgear on wires (cables) and related insulators, fittings, located above wires, and energized cables must be carried out in accordance with the PPR approved by the head of the organization or separate unit. The PPR must provide measures to prevent the lowering of wires (cables) and to protect against induced voltage. It is not allowed to replace wires (cables) during this work without removing the voltage from the crossed wires.

4.10. Workers should remember that after the voltage at the electrical installation has disappeared, it can be reapplied without warning.

4.11. Work in unlit places is not allowed. The illumination of work areas, workplaces, passages and approaches to them must be uniform, without the glare of lighting devices on workers.

Work without stress relief

Work without relieving voltage near or directly on live parts. When performing work without removing the 380/220 V voltage in heat shields, computers or measurement circuits, special precautions must be taken. Workers must work in dielectric galoshes or standing on an insulating base. They should use tools with insulating handles; screwdrivers should have blades coated with an insulating coating. [p.161]

When performing work without removing voltage in computer circuits with a voltage of no more than 42 V, compliance with the above requirements is not necessary. [p.162]

Due to the significant danger of electric shock during work without removing the voltage in electrical installations above 1 kV, at least two workers from among the operational and repair personnel must participate simultaneously, with the eldest with a safety qualification group of at least IV, the rest - not below III. At work, it is mandatory to use protective equipment to isolate a person from live parts or from the ground. The same work in an electrical installation up to 1 kV, taking into account their small dimensions, is carried out under the condition that live parts under voltage, which can be accidentally touched, are fenced off near the workplace. You must work in dielectric galoshes or on an insulating stand or mat; use the tool with insulating handles. It is prohibited to work in a bent position if, when straightened, the distance to live, non-disconnected parts is less than 0.6 m. It is unacceptable for unprotected live parts to be located behind the worker or on both sides. [p.183]

[p.184]

The work order is handed over to the operational personnel before work begins; it is issued in two copies (work order form—see Appendix B9 [8]) for one work performer (supervisor) with one team. For the same type of work performed under voltage by one team (for example, load measurements), as well as for work without voltage relief, one general work order can be issued for their alternate production at a number of connections, in the same or different switchgears, in different rooms of the substation. Registration of transfer of a team from one workplace to another is required only when moving from one plant to another. For all work performed with voltage relief (in various places) at a given substation, in a given switchgear, one work order is issued. [p.186]

It is allowed to combine the duties of the person issuing the work order and the responsible work manager (for work without stress relief, he is not assigned).

BASIC PROTECTION AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK

  1. Touching live parts of electrical installations that are energized.
  2. Approaching a person at a dangerous distance to live parts of electrical installations not protected by insulation.
  3. Human contact with non-current-carrying parts of electrical installations that are energized (due to a short circuit to their housing).
  4. Mistakenly accepting energized equipment as disconnected.
  5. Insulation damage.
  6. Lightning strike.
  7. Actions of an electric arc.
  8. Freeing another person under tension.
  9. As a result of the occurrence of current voltage on the surface of the earth due to the short circuit of a phase wire to the ground, which led to the spreading of current along the ground. A person who finds himself in the affected area is exposed to step
    voltage, which takes on dangerous values ​​as he approaches the wire. The step voltage depends on the distance between the points of contact between a person and the ground. You should move away from a fallen wire in small steps. At a distance of more than 20 m from the wire, the voltage drops to zero.
  1. Collective protective equipment.
