1 OSHA s Enforcement and Significant Changes in 2015 NFPA 70E Presented by Doug Tellin Electrical Safety Specialists LLC.
2 Aristotle Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.
3 1 out of out of 10 Safety Overall 1 Fatality 30 Lost-Time Injuries 1 Fatality Electrical Safety 300 Recordable Injuries 30,000 Near Misses 10 Recordable Injuries 300,000 At-Risk Behaviors Electrical Safety should be a MAJOR concern! 3
4 Better to Plan and Prevent than to Repair and Repent 4
5 NFPA 70E 2015 And OSHA Have set the bar high! NPFA70, NFPA 70E, NFPA 70B, NFPA 99 are all trade marks of the National Fire Protection Association, INC 5
6 OSHA S mission is not SEEK AND DESTROY OSHA S mission is IDENTIFY AND FIX
7 OSHA S EXPECTATIONS Never work on live circuits unless it is absolutely necessary. OSHA has strict guidelines for working live circuits. Production or inconvenience is not justification for working energized. Not having the authority to shut off power, cannot be used as an excuse for workers.
8 OSHA S EXPECTATIONS 1. Was an arc flash hazard analysis performed? 2. Were flash protection boundaries established? 3. Were all other potential electrical hazards identified? 4. Was a shock hazard analyses performed? 5. Were shock hazard boundaries established? These are all Questions every EHS professional should have an answer to.
9 OSHA S EXPECTATIONS This can be a very complex task for most facilities. OSHA inspectors are trained to ask if these analyses were performed This is the only way for electrical hazards to be reduced to a manageable level.
10 OSHA S EXPECTATIONS Go Home the way you came to work today. Don t make your family the victim of complacency.
11 OSHA S EXPECTATIONS The employer must show proof of the appropriate training and certifications for a person to be deemed qualified in OSHA s Eyes This is achieved by training, even for the experienced electrician.
12 OSHA S INSPECTIONS Employer May Qualify for a "Focused Inspection" Inspector will "focus" on these four hazard areas: Falls Struck by Caught in/between Electrical
13 OSHA S INSPECTIONS Example OSHA Citation
14 NFPA 70E Standard for electrical safety in the workplace Arc Flash Assessments and reviews every 5 years! Only qualified persons working within the limited approach boundary energized parts! Retraining every 3 years! Annual audits of performance! CPR/AED annually! Release of victims training annually! 16

16 130.5 Arc Flash Risk Assessment An arc flash risk assessment shall be performed and shall: (1) Determine if an arc flash hazard exists. If an arc flash hazard exists, the risk assessment shall determine: a. Appropriate safety-related work practices b. The arc flash boundary c. The PPE to be used within the arc flash boundary
