Electrical Hazards (CLUES)

• I wiring• E electrical parts• U electrical systems and

tools• O circuits• D power tools and

equipment• W PPE and tools• Overhead P• W conditions

Inadequate Wiring

• Wire is too small for the current

Exposed Electrical Parts

Damaged Power Tools

Ungrounded electrical systems and tools

Grounding creates a low-resistance pathfrom a tool to the earth to disperse

unwanted current.

When a short or lightning occurs, energy flowsto the ground, protecting you from electricalshock, injury and death.

Overloaded Circuits

Using wrong PPE and tools
