1) General
Equipment that supplies electrical power can cause serious injury or death, damage to other equipment or
property. The operator must strictly observe all safety rules and take precautionary actions. Safe practices
have been developed from past experience in the use of power source equipment. While certain practices
below apply only to electrically powered equipment, other practices apply to engine-driven equipment, and
some practices to both.
2) Shock Prevention
Bare conductors, terminals in the output circuit, or ungrounded, electrically live equipment can fatally shock a
person. Have a certified electrician verify that the equipment is adequately grounded and learn what
terminals and parts are electrically HOT. Avoid hot spots on machine. Use proper safety clothing,
procedures and test equipment.
The electrical resistance of the body is decreased when wet, permitting dangerous currents to flow through it.
When inspecting or servicing the equipment, do not work in damp areas. Stand on a dry rubber mat or dry
wood, and use insulating gloves when dampness or sweat cannot be avoided. Keep clothing dry, and never
work alone.
a) Output Cables and Terminals
Inspect cables frequently for damage to the insulation and the connectors. Replace or repair cracked
or worn cables immediately. Do not overload cables. Do not touch output terminal while equipment
is energized.
