What processes are you permitted to do on a 480 electrical panel with the cover removed while you are wearing 30% polyester underwear?



And what degrees of incline is required for a the sides of a 5ft deep trench 20ft long to NOT require shoring of the sides or a ladder for egress?

1) No idea. Not covered by OSHA. That's an NFPA 70 thing (I think) and we don't do ANY electrical.

 



2) Depends, mostly on soil classification. If stable rock, no shoring required. Means of egress required for any trench >4', though.

OSHA says 20', but many plants say 8'.

Make sure your guys have wire cutters on site so when OSHA shows up you can cut all the extension wires that have repairs or frays in them.



Also, get a sweet frame for the certificate and hang it in your office it looks awesome!

Carefully bevel the edges of the frame to remove sharp burrs and you should actually frame it behind plexiglass instead of plain glass.

Safety first, safety last.  

Oh, and call Dig Safe before you put a nail in the wall to hang the frame from it.

I had a super do that to a contractor after giving him a warning.  The guy freaked out, ran over to the supers desk and cut his computer/printer cords.  The police were called.

Has anyone fallen a sleep and then fall out of their chair yet?  In my class a guy cut his head open on the table before he hit the floor.

#1 Trick question. You can lock it out. NFPA 70 only applies to live equipment. If it is DE energized you can do whatever you want with it. If it is live you may test for voltage.

#2 Nailed it.

My Dad was an electrician for Kansas City Power & Light. He taught me everything I need to know about electricity: If you can see it, it's bad!
