Course Description

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and. Theory learned will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 
 
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of NFPA 70 AND 70E: NEC Workplace Electrical Safety. It covers the distinguishing between NEC (NFPA 70) and workplace safety (NFPA 70E); the principles of electricity, common electrical faults, danger zones and exposure points; the root causes and contributing factors, human error and behavior-based safety implications and the importance of learning from near-miss reports; the components of an effective electrical safety program (ESP), safety goals, policies, and performance indicators; the coordination between engineering and HSE departments and audit and continuous improvement mechanisms; the electrical shock hazards, arc flash hazards, arc blast and related hazards; and the limited, restricted and prohibited approach boundaries. 
 
Further, the course will also discuss the risk assessment procedure by identifying hazards and assessing risk levels, job safety planning and risk evaluation and hierarchy of risk controls; the energized electrical work permits (EEWP) covering components and approval process of EEWP, coordination with management and operations and documentation and retention requirements; the safe equipment design and installation (NEC compliance), personal protective equipment (PPE) selection, labeling and signage requirements and tools and testing equipment safety; and the lockout/tagout procedures (LOTO), preventive maintenance schedules, infrared thermography and condition monitoring and record-keeping and compliance tracking. 
 
During this interactive course, participants will learn the company specific electrical safety concerns, safe work practices, emergency response planning and electrical safety auditing; the root cause analysis (RCA) for electrical incidents, enhancing safety through training and awareness and regulatory compliance and global best practices; the de-energization hierarchy and justification, verification of zero energy state, temporary protective grounds and safe re-energization procedures; the step-by-step procedure to achieve ESWC, verification tools and techniques, documentation of ESWC completion and reinstating normal operations safely; and the contractor and third-party coordination covering safety expectations from electrical contractors, pre-job safety meetings and permits, lockout-tagout synchronization and responsibility sharing and reporting.
