voltage

the difference in potentials between two point

current

the movement or flow of electric charges

resistance

the property of material which opposes the flow of electric current

ohms law

the current flowing in a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage & inversely proportional to the resistance.

e= r*i

ohms law

conductor

permits electrons or electric current to flow through it

conductors

have low resistance to electricity

insulator

used to provide barrier around a conductor

semiconductors

can change their resistance to acts as either a conductor or an insulator

electric circuit

may take multiple paths flowing through all possible circuits

equipment grounding

connects all conductive materials that enclose electric lines

electrical system grounding

protects circuits from voltages that may come from lightning or line upsurges

bypassing grounds

can result in electrical fires and fatal accidents

cpd- circuit protection device

protects againts circuit malfunction by preventing too much current from passing from power source to the rest of the circuit

GFCI - ground fault circuit Interrupters

a supersensitive , rapid action power switch which breaks a circyit when there is more than 5ma

melting, tripping or opening the break circuit

gfci will stop the electric flow by

lock out

blocking the flow of energy from the power source to the equipment

loto

protects you from unexpected start up of machines or release of stored energy during service or maintenance

lock out

place a lock on a disconnected switch to make sure it is not removed from its off position

tag out

attach a warning sign where the equipment will be energized

authorized employee

a person who loto the machine

affected employee

employee whose work involves use or operation of equipment

loto safeguards

are designed to protect workers

shock

the passage of electric current through your body

electricity

a silent visible force that can kill without warning if its dangers are ignored

1. basic principles of electric safety


2. safe work practices


3. correct response to emergencies

our safety depends on understanding 3 things

1. fuses


2. circuit breakers


3. gfci

circuit protection device

resetting circuit protection device

rules for circuit protection

donts in using loto

energy sources

service or maintenance activities on equipment include

preparation


shutdown


isolation


application


control


verify

6 steps to loto

preparation

know the equipment & its energy source before working on it

shutdown

turn off the equipment

isolation

find and isolate every form of energy that the machines use

application

anything that might restore the flow of energy must be locked out

lock box

places all keys of all employees

control

control stored energy

verify

check and double check

3 steps to removal and re energizing

1. restore work area


2. notify personnel


3. remove loto devices


degree of injury of shock depends on the

1. mild shock


2. severe shock


3. deadly shock

electrical emergencies

mild shock

brief contact with less than 5 ma current

effectsnof mild shock

severe shock

longer current contact from 5ma -25 ma

effects of severe shock

deadly shock

happens when a workes is frozen to a electrical contact point grealter than 25 ma

effects of deadly shock

first aid procedures for mild shock

first aid procedures for continous shock

first aid procedure for severe shock

mechanical hazards

the exposure to moving parts wheter automatic or manually operated

points of operation


power transmission


in running nip points


shear points


other moving parts

moving parts are as follows

points of operation

actual work is performed on the material

power transmission points

where energy or motion is transferred from source to destination

nip points

two or more components running in opposite directions come in contact with each other

shear points

where one moving component of a machine runs past one which is stationary

machine guards and safeguards

these are components that protect the worker from direct contact eoth mechanical hazardw

guards

static protective device that prevent Access to moving parts

barriers, fences, enclosures

example of guards

safe guards

dynamic protective device

sample of safeguards

1. check each guard and safeguard to see if it is in place and operating correctly


2. inspect each guard for signs of abuse l, tampering or damage that could affect its performance


3. test each alarm, warning indicator or emergency system


4. check to see that permanent guards are in place and in good condition


5. examine the ventilation holes or hatches in guards. should be dirt free and not at risk of overheating


6. for moving mechanical parts check presence of appropriate signage

inspecting for mechanical hazards

Fixed


Interlocked


Adjustable


Self-Adjusting

4 types of guards

fatalities

employeesgetting caught in rotating shafts such as well boring drills & lathes

fixed guards

•Apermanent part of the machine•Notdependent on any other part to perform the function•Usuallymade of sheet metal, screen, bars or other material which will withstand theanticipated impact•Generallyconsidered the preferred type of guard.•Simpleand durable

interlockedGuard

•Usuallyconnected to a mechanism that will cut off the power automatically•Coulduse electrical, mechanical or hydraulic systems•Shouldrely on a manual reset system

nAdjustableGuard

•Veryflexible to accommodate various types of stock.•Manuallyadjusted

self-Adjusting>

•Theopening is determined by the movement of the stock through the guard.Doesnot always provide maximum protection

BenchGrinders

requirea work rest with a maximum clearance of 1/8 inch to insure that the work doesnot get drawn into the grinding wheel.
