Design / Safeguarding / Information
Electrical hazards due to:
Contact of persons with live parts
(direct contact)
Isolated within control panel
Contact of persons with parts which
have become live under faulty
conditions (indirect contact)
Interlock on panel door cuts
power when actuated
Approach to live parts under high
voltage
Thermal radiation or other
phenomena such as the projection of
molten particles and chemical effects
from short circuits, overloads, etc.
Thermal hazards, resulting in:
Burns, scalds and other injuries by a
possible contact of persons with
objects or materials with an extreme
high or low temperature, by flames or
explosions
Safe working practices given
during training
Damage to health by hot or cold
working environment
Hazards generated by noise
Hearing loss (deafness), other
physiological disorders (e.g. loss of
balance, loss of awareness)
Interference with speech
communication, acoustic signals,
Hazards generated by vibration
