Personnel Safety Practices
Make sure that test personnel follow these recommendations:
1. A pretest meeting is recommended. Frequently, other crews will be
working on non-test-related tasks in close proximity to equipment being
tested. The pretest meeting should include all personnel who will be
working in proximity to the area where testing will be performed. In this
meeting, review with crew members the tests to be performed, apparatus,
voltage test levels involved, potential hazards, and individual assignments.
Test personnel need to remain aware of the work activity taking place
around them and alert to the possibility that non-test personnel may enter
the test area.
2. Agree on a consistent and uniform set of signals, both visual and verbal.
All crew members should follow them during testing.
3. While making the various types of connections involved in the tests, it
may be necessary for personnel to climb up on the apparatus, but no one
should remain on the apparatus during the test itself.
