14:45Hand Protection for Electrical Shock and Arc Flash Hazards Written by Hugh Hoagland and Zarheer Jooma, BSEE, M.S. on October 1, 2024. Posted in Worksite Safety . Read the article here: https://incident-prevention.com/blog/hand-protection-for-electrical-shock-and-arc-flash-hazards/ Ensuring proper hand protection against electrical shock and arc flash hazards is vital for worker safety. This podcast delves into the evolution of protective gloves, highlighting advancements in multihazard protection, safe work practices, glove testing methods, and updates on international standards. Key Takeaways: •Evolution of Hand Protection: Transition from basic leather gloves to advanced multihazard protective gear. •Standards and Testing: Overview of ASTM D120-22 specifications and glove testing procedures. •Safe Work Practices: Importance of integrating proper glove use into daily safety protocols. •International Standards Updates: Recent developments in global standards for electrical safety gloves. FAQs: 1. What are the main types of hand protection used for electrical work? There are two main types of hand protection used for electrical work: Rubber Insulating Gloves: These gloves are designed to protect against electrical shock. They are made of specialized rubber that is electrically strong and tested to withstand high voltages. They are classified according to their maximum AC use voltage, ranging from Class 00 (500V) to Class 4 (36kV). Protector Gloves: These gloves are worn over rubber insulating gloves to provide mechanical and thermal protection. Traditionally made of leather, they are now available in various materials and designs, including cut-resistant fabrics and composite materials, thanks to standards like ASTM F3258. 2. Why are protector gloves worn over rubber insulating gloves? Protector gloves serve several important purposes: Mechanical Protection: They protect the rubber insulating gloves from punctures, cuts, and abrasions, which can compromise their electrical integrity. Thermal Protection: They offer protection against heat and flames, particularly important in arc flash situations. Grip Enhancement: Leather protector gloves can improve grip, especially in oily conditions. Newer materials and designs can offer even better grip and dexterity. 3. What are the key considerations for selecting hand protection for electrical work? Choosing appropriate hand protection involves assessing the specific hazards present in the work environment: Shock Hazard: If a shock hazard exists, rubber insulating gloves with the appropriate voltage rating are mandatory. Arc Flash Hazard: If an arc flash hazard is present, arc-rated gloves are required. The arc rating should match or exceed the potential incident energy calculated for the task. Mechanical Hazards: Consider the need for cut, puncture, and abrasion resistance based on the work environment. Environmental Conditions: Factors such as temperature, humidity, and the presence of chemicals should influence glove selection. Dexterity Requirements: Choose gloves that allow for sufficient dexterity to perform the task safely and efficiently. 4. How often should rubber insulating gloves be tested? OSHA mandates that rubber insulating gloves be electrically tested every six months using the ASTM D120 proof test. Additionally, daily visual inspection and air inflation testing are required before each use. 5. What are the recent advancements in hand protection for electrical work? Several advancements have improved hand protection for electrical workers: New Materials: ASTM F3258 allows for protector gloves made from materials other than leather, offering better dexterity, grip, and cut resistance while meeting safety requirements. Multi-Hazard Protection: Gloves are increasingly designed to protect against multiple hazards, combining electrical insulation with cut resistance, arc flash protection, and other features. Enhanced Comfort and Fit: Innovations in design and materials have led to more comfortable and better-fitting gloves, improving user experience and compliance. 6. What are the challenges of hand protection in clean room environments? Clean room environments often restrict the use of leather due to concerns about contamination. This poses challenges for electrical workers who require both shock and arc flash protection. ASTM F3258 addresses this gap by allowing for non-leather protector gloves, but finding suitable options for low-voltage installations with both hazards remains a challenge. 7. How do international standards compare to US standards for hand protection? IEC 60903, the international standard for electrical insulating gloves, differs from ASTM D120 in several aspects, including the absence of a thickness requirement and the inclusion of composite gloves. The upcoming IEC 63232 will address arc testing methods and arc-rated glove standards for international use, aligning more closely with US practices. 8. What should workers do when exposed to both shock and arc flash hazards? When both shock and arc flash hazards are present, workers must use rubber insulating gloves with the appropriate voltage rating and arc-rated protector gloves. OSHA mandates arc-rated gloves for incident energies exceeding 14 cal/cm². Selecting gloves that meet the latest ASTM standards (F696 or F3258) ensures adequate protection against both hazards. #ElectricalSafety #ArcFlashProtection #HandProtection #WorkerSafety #PPE #SafetyStandards ________________________________ This podcast is sponsored by T&D Powerskills.

34:18Are you tired of hearing the same safety jargon without seeing real change? Join Bill Martin, President and CEO of think Tank Project, LLC, and Kate Wade, Editor of Incident Prevention magazine, as they dive deep into the root causes of workplace injuries and fatalities. Discover how to move beyond motivation and empty slogans to create a truly safe and connected work environment. Key Takeaways from this podcast: Importance of Synchronization: The way forward in safety management involves creating a synchronized workforce where everyone is connected on a deeper level. Synchronization allows for better communication and understanding, reducing the chances of injuries and accidents. Action Over Motivation: Motivational speeches and slogans alone are insufficient to bring about real change in workplace safety. There needs to be actionable steps that translate motivation into tangible improvements on the ground. Understanding Human Behavior: The podcast emphasizes that much of human behavior is automatic, driven by the brain’s need to conserve energy. Safety programs should account for this by focusing on changing automatic behaviors rather than expecting constant vigilance. The Role of Leadership: Effective leadership is about asking the right questions and involving workers in safety decisions. Leaders should model the behavior they want to see and create environments that encourage participation and ownership of safety practices. Continuous Learning and Experimentation: The podcast suggests that safety improvements should be approached as ongoing experiments, where teams try out new ideas, evaluate their effectiveness, and adjust accordingly. Dealing with Resistance: Resistance to change is natural, especially in large organizations with many layers. The podcast highlights the importance of addressing this resistance by aligning everyone around common goals and encouraging openness to new ideas. Mental and Emotional Health: Addressing mental health issues, such as addiction and depression, is crucial for creating a safe work environment. A connected and supportive team can help identify and mitigate these risks. Practical Applications: The podcast concludes with a call to action—what small, tangible change can be implemented on Monday to make the workplace safer? It’s about translating ideas into real-world actions that have a measurable impact. #safetyculture #workplaceinjury #safetymanagement #safetyleadership #industrialaccidents #safetytraining #safetytips #safetypodcast #accidentprevention #riskmanagement You can read the current magazine at Incident Prevention Magazine .

29:48In the eighth episode of this multipart podcast series, Bill Martin, CUSP, president and CEO of Think Tank Project LLC ( www.thinkprojectllc.com ), and host Kate Wade discuss a host of topics and what they are seeing in the safety world, and how to change it! This podcast discusses safety in the utility industry. Here are the key points: Safety conferences are not leading to a decrease in accidents. Bill Martin, a safety consultant, argues that the safety information is not being translated into actionable steps for workers. Focus on worker-centered safety. Instead of top-down safety initiatives, Bill Martin proposes a worker-centered approach where workers are involved in creating and implementing safety measures. The current safety approach might not consider human biology. Bill Martin argues that safety messages need to consider how the human brain reacts to stimuli in order to be effective. We need to connect with workers on a human level. Bill Martin emphasizes the importance of building relationships and trust with workers to create a safer work environment. Younger generations may hold the key to safety improvements. Bill Martin believes younger generations have the potential to improve safety practices if they are taught how to connect and be curious.

34:10Listen to this important episode of this Voice of Experience with Danny Raines! The speaker, a retired lineman with over 55 years of experience, discusses the importance of proper training and development for lineman. He argues that simply obtaining a journeyman license doesn't guarantee competency and that true learning happens on the job. The speaker outlines the different stages of lineman development, starting with basic line skills like climbing poles and tying knots. He emphasizes the importance of safety rules and procedures, and of always testing and verifying everything before starting work. The speaker also discusses the challenges of troubleshooting electrical problems and the importance of critical thinking and problem-solving skills. He concludes by sharing a personal story about his own journeyman lineman training. Here are some key takeaways from the description: Lineman development is a continuous process that goes beyond obtaining a journeyman license. On-the-job training is crucial for developing the necessary skills and knowledge. Safety rules and procedures must be strictly followed. Critical thinking and problem-solving skills are essential for troubleshooting electrical problems. You can read the current magazine at Incident Prevention Magazine .

Cold weather highlights the importance of proper conductor sag. Improper sag can lead to outages, but using the right calculations keeps the system safe. Early days: We used to tighten conductors for looks, unaware of factors like "ruling spans." This worked in mild climates, but led to failures in harsh winters. The Science: Conductor size, span length, and installation temperature all affect final sag and tension. Getting it Right: We all want a neat system, but too much slack can cause problems too. Elevation changes and long pulls require extra considerations. A Case Study: Improper uphill sagging during a long pull forced us to re-sag to achieve proper tension. The Takeaway: Today, detailed specifications and online resources guide proper sagging. Initial sag should be close, with final adjustments and dynamometer checks following. Do it Right, Once: True professionals take the time to ensure quality work that lasts. A circuit I worked on 30 years ago still has proper sag - a testament to getting it right the first time.

31:36The podcast highlights the growing influence of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) factors in the utility sector. ESG goes beyond just financial performance, considering a company's environmental impact, social responsibility, and ethical practices. Investors are increasingly evaluating companies through this lens, pressuring utilities to focus on sustainability, worker safety, and good governance. Interestingly, safety practices themselves align well with ESG goals. This means safety professionals have an opportunity to leverage ESG to advocate for better resources, promote sustainable safety programs, and demonstrate the value of safety in the bigger picture of ESG. By understanding this connection, safety professionals can play a key role in shaping a more sustainable and responsible future for the utility industry.

35:30Read the article here: https://incident-prevention.com/blog/harnessing-ai-crafting-the-future-of-safety-professionals/ Dive deeper into this article written by BARRY NELSON from FactorLab. Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize the way safety professionals approach their work. In this article, Barry Nelson, president and CEO of FactorLab, discusses how AI can be used to create a future where work-related risks are minimized, productivity is maximized, and workplaces become more secure and efficient. One of the most promising applications of AI in safety is in the area of data analytics. AI can be used to analyze large amounts of data from a variety of sources, including safety reports, incident investigations, and employee surveys. This data can then be used to identify patterns and trends that may not be visible to the human eye. For example, AI can be used to identify specific jobs, tasks, or locations that are associated with a higher risk of accidents. This information can then be used to develop targeted interventions to reduce those risks. AI can also be used to develop predictive maintenance programs. By analyzing data on equipment performance, AI can identify potential problems before they occur. This can help to prevent equipment failures that could lead to accidents. In addition to data analytics, AI can also be used to develop new safety training programs. AI-powered training programs can be personalized to the individual needs of each employee. They can also be used to provide real-time feedback and support. Nelson argues that AI is not a replacement for safety professionals. Instead, he sees AI as a tool that can help safety professionals do their jobs more effectively and efficiently. AI can help safety professionals to identify risks, develop interventions, and train employees. In conclusion, AI has the potential to transform the way safety professionals approach their work. By harnessing the power of AI, safety professionals can create a future where work-related risks are minimized, productivity is maximized, and workplaces become more secure and efficient. ________________________________ This podcast is sponsored by T&D Powerskills.

23:22In this episode of Tailgate Topics, Rod Courtney, CUSP interviews William Martin, CUSP, RN, NRP, DIMM ON his article in Incident Prevention Magazine titled "Power Restoration Triage and Delta Systems" Important points in the article cover - The importance of triage in power restoration: Triage is a way of prioritizing outages so that the most critical ones can be restored first. This is important because it helps to minimize the impact of the storm on businesses, homes, and public safety. The different types of triage systems: There are a number of different triage systems that can be used for power restoration. The best system for a particular situation will depend on the factors involved, such as the size and complexity of the outage, the availability of resources, and the severity of the weather conditions. The unique challenges of triaging delta systems: Delta systems are more common in rural areas and small communities. They pose unique challenges for triaging because they can create low-voltage conditions that can damage customer equipment. The insights of experts in the field: We'll hear from experts in the field of power restoration to get their insights on how to do triage effectively. This will include tips on how to prioritize outages, how to choose the right triage system, and how to deal with the unique challenges of delta systems. About the Author: Bill Martin, CUSP, NRP, RN, DIMM, is the president and CEO of Think Tank Project LLC ( www.thinkprojectllc.com ). He has held previous roles as a lineman, line supervisor and safety director.

20:57Listen to Danny Raines, CUSP discuss his newest article in iP Magazine about Lineworkers & Rubber Sleeves. Read the Article Rubber sleeves are an important safety tool for lineworkers who work with energized electrical equipment. They provide additional insulation and protection from electrical shock, and can help to prevent serious injuries or death. In the past, some lineworkers did not wear rubber sleeves, but this practice has become increasingly rare in recent years. The OSHA Strategic Partnership Program, which was developed in 2005-2006, encourages the use of rubber sleeves by lineworkers. The program has been successful in reducing the number of electrical incidents and fatalities, and most lineworkers now wear rubber sleeves when working with energized equipment. OSHA regulations require that lineworkers wear rubber insulating gloves and sleeves when working with energized parts. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. For example, an employee may not need to wear rubber sleeves if the exposed energized parts on which the employee is not working are insulated from the employee. It is important for lineworkers to be aware of the risks associated with working with energized electrical equipment. Rubber sleeves are an important safety tool that can help to prevent serious injuries or death. Here are some additional benefits of wearing rubber sleeves: They can help to protect the lineworker's arms from burns and other injuries caused by arc flash. They can help to prevent the lineworker from being electrocuted if they come into contact with an energized conductor. They can help to reduce the risk of developing electrical shock-related health problems, such as heart arrhythmias and nerve damage. If you are a lineworker or work in a related field, it is important to wear rubber sleeves when working with energized electrical equipment. Rubber sleeves can help to protect you from serious injuries or death. You can read the current magazine at Incident Prevention Magazine .

At best it’s a distraction that steals our focus, and at it’s worst it becomes violent.” The superintendent replied to the foreman, “I hear you, Billy. Let’s come up with a plan on how to deal with this.” Three Important Questions In this month’s Tailgate, we’re going to review answers to three important questions related to workplace conflict and violence, and then we’ll look at how to deal with three areas of conflict in ways that lead to the best possible outcome based on the situation.

1 Utility Safety Voice of Experience: Danny Raines, CUSP - Ground Gradient Step Potential and PPE 28:35

28:35In this episode, Danny Raines, CUSP talks on why for various reasons, ground gradient step potential hazards are not always considered or thought to be important. I recently received a call from a large investor-owned utility whose employees had differing opinions about using super dielectric overshoes or work boots when setting a pole in an energized line. Some people are of the opinion that if you cover up the lines with a nominal voltage-rated cover, there is no danger of an energized pole and therefore no chance of ground gradient step potential. I believe the manufacturer’s usage suggestion for any cover is for incidental brush contact by a qualified worker, not a boom truck or pole. There is nothing in ASTM D1050, “Standard Specification for Rubber Insulating Line Hose,” stating that hoses can be used for any means or measures other than a qualified electrical worker’s personal protection from energized conductors. Pole shields are another product believed by many to protect workers on the ground who make indirect contact with energized parts. But unless the company is an electric cooperative and lives by the required Rural Electric Safety Achievement Program, which is part of the annual compliance audit by the company that insures most electric cooperatives, the dielectric testing of Salcor line hoses does not happen. Everything, including pole shields, is rated safety equipment. You can read the current magazine at Incident Prevention Magazine .
