Step 7 : Issue a permit to worka) Note: The permit to work is about control of the workplace and people. It is

a summary of the previous protective measures and hazards. It is also a clear statement of responsibility from the Nominated Person for these protective measures.

b) The Electrical Equipment to be worked on must be released for work through the issue of an electrical Permit to Work at the point of work. The Nominated Person issuing this is responsible for creating and maintaining the safe working area in accordance with 7 steps principles.

c) The permit to work shall contain clear, legible details of: The location of the work, and the precautions that have been taken to establish the safe working area. The scope of the work Hazards in the immediate area Completion of site risk assessment Completion of Safety Check sheet Signature of the Nominated Person in charge of the work party, times and

dates of issue and cancellation. Signatures of work party members

d) The Nominated Person in charge of the work party shall be responsible for the safety of his work area and all other persons in his work party regardless of seniority.

e) Warning signs and demarcation equipment is not to be removed until after cancellation or the issue of further safety documents.

f) The Nominated Person in charge of the work party shall be responsible for ensuring all persons and tools are withdrawn on completion of work, and hand over of the Electrical Equipment in proper condition according to the work undertaken.

g) Where the boundary of the safe working area changes during the course of the work, further permits to work must be issued.

15.3 Rules for working on or very near live Electrical Equipment

a) All work packages that require work on or very near live Electrical Equipment must have prior written approval from the local Service Unit manager, who must be satisfied that personnel have the appropriate skills to undertake the required task.

b) The rules in Sections 11.1 – 11.2 shall be followed where relevant.c) The risk assessment shall specifically evaluate whether the work can be

done dead or in some other way, and what additional special safety measures must be undertaken.

15.4 Switching

a) Note that switching includes insertion or withdrawal of a switching device.b) ABB service personnel may only undertake Switching operations with

specific written approval from the local Service Unit manager.



EM-06916.00121OF420

c) Any person carrying out switching must have sufficient information and competence to understand the effect of that switching on the system, and potential danger to himself or others.

d) Switching must only be carried out by a person properly trained and authorised in writing, and who is familiar with the function and operation of the switchgear concerned.

e) Switching must be carried out in conjunction with the person in control of the system.

f) Appropriate personal protection equipment must be worn by personnel undertaking switching operation. At minimum flame retardant overalls, gloves and a safety visor must be worn.

g) Where possible remote switching shall be undertaken.

15.5 Work on, or very near, live conductors

a) Any work which cannot be done beyond the safe working clearances in Appendix 1 must be the subject of a special written procedure, and carried out by specially trained and authorised persons.

b) Work is considered ‘Live work’ when it comes within the Live zone distances in appendix 1, or if the work requires the removal of covers, doors or barriers to expose live conductors.

c) Work must only be carried out by a person properly trained and authorised in writing, and who is familiar with the function and operation of the Electrical Equipment concerned.

d) Appropriate personal protection equipment must be worn by personnel undertaking the work. At minimum flame retardant overalls, gloves and a safety visor must be worn.

15.6 Testing and Commissioning

a) Where it is necessary to carry out electrical tests on Electrical Equipment, the safe working area must be established by following steps 1 – 6 as described in Section 15.2, before being released for tests by a safety document, and earths removed.

b) The test area must be under the control of a suitably competent person and precautions taken to avoid electric shock as in step 4 in Section 15.2.

c) Additional warning signs and barriers must be used to protect other persons nearby from test voltages.

d) Work on Electrical Equipment shall only be done, or supervised, by a person competent to recognize danger and apply controls from: Live low voltage wires ac and dc Voltages arising from current transformers, protection, pilot cables and earths Primary power conductors at high or low voltage Interference with fully operational power systems Test equipment

15.7 APPENDICES



EM-06916.00122OF420

NOTES ON USE OF APPENDICES

The following tables are for guidance only. They should be used as part of a thorough risk assessment.The tables have been derived from documents which contain much more detail.Where possible consult local standards, which may have different figures and methods of application.

15.7.1 APPENDIX 1

Minimum working clearance

The minimum working clearance is the minimum distance, in air, between a live exposed conductor, and any part of a person’s body, tool, conductor or apparatus that a person may be touching. The clearance must take into account the nature of the work and relative positions of the live conductor and the working area.Where work infringes this clearance then addition control measures should be implemented to maintain safety.

Where work infringes the live working zone then it shall be considered to be live work.

(Source: EN 50110-1 NB. ‘Minimum working clearance’ is Dv; ‘Outer limit of vicinity zone’ and’ live working zone’ is ‘Minimum working distance Dc in this standard.)

15.7.2 APPENDIX 2

Minimum design clearances where power lines cross or are in close proximity.

These provide a useful guide when assessing the degree of risk from nearby power circuits. They do not take into account the additional risks of failure created by extreme weather conditions or poor condition of the equipment.



EM-06916.00123OF420

The clearances are calculated for the upper conductor operating at its maximum likely temperature and the lower conductor at 25deg.C less. They must also allow for a maximum wind loading swing of 45deg.

* extrapolated

(Source: derived from UK spec. EATS 43-8)

15.7.3 APPENDIX 3

Minimum separation across point of disconnection in air

These are between open isolator blades, or disconnection between fixed points. Where separation is not fixed, such as overhead line spans, greater clearances will be required (see appendix 15.7.1 & 15.7.2). Consideration should also be given to other conditions which may bridge or degrade the insulation gap.
