Course Overview:

Introduction: Understand the purpose, scope, and covered aspects of NFPA 70E. Delve into key definitions of safety-related work practices, including arc flash hazard, boundaries, de-energized states, and incident energy.

Safety-Related Work Practices: Grasp essential definitions, such as arc flash hazard, boundaries like limited approach and restricted approach, de-energized states, and the concept of an electrically safe work condition. Explore fault currents, incident energy analysis, nominal voltage, and the roles of qualified personnel.

Electrical Safety Program: Learn about the principles and controls of an electrical safety program. Understand procedures, risk assessment, and the hierarchy of risk control methods. Dive into human error, awareness, administrative controls, personal protective equipment (PPE), and the importance of job safety planning.

Lockout/Tagout Program: Navigate through the intricacies of lockout/tagout, the Fatal Five, zero energy state, and the 4 E’s to energy control. Understand lockout devices, additional training, and the eight steps for effective lockout/tagout procedures.

Start-up Guidelines: Explore isolation procedures for process equipment and piping, including double block and bleed, slip blind or spectacle blind, and blind flange. Understand the purpose, scope, applications, and hazards associated with isolation.

Work Involving Electrical Hazards: Explore conditions involving electrical hazards, electrically safe work conditions, and considerations for equipment operating at less than 50 volts. Learn about normal operating conditions, energized electrical work permits, and the elements of a work permit.

Practical Session: Although no practical session is mentioned, the theoretical knowledge gained from the course can be applied practically in real-world scenarios involving electrical safety.

Equip yourself with the necessary insights and expertise to navigate electrical work safely. Enroll in the Electrical Safety – NFPA 70E 4-Hour Training for a condensed yet impactful learning experience.
