NFPA 70E Electrical Safety in the Workplace
A new generation of NFPA 70E paves
the way for improved safety!
Electrical dangers such as shock,
electrocution, arc flash, and arc blast will
always be present on the job, but proper
training and safety strategies can minimize
the likelihood of injuries and fatalities.
NFPA 70E: Electrical Safety in the
Workplace covers the full range of
electrical safety issues from work practices
to maintenance, special equipment
requirements, and installation. In fact,
OSHA bases its electrical safety mandates on
the comprehensive information in this
important Standard.
Changes and updates in the 2004
NFPA 70E help reduce risks and
accidents!
Installation requirements have been
updated to the 2002 NEC®.
New and revised definitions clarify
electrical safety issues such as arc
rating, incident energy, and restricted
approach boundary.
New language concerning
multi-employer relationships requires
all contractors on a project to be aware
of hazards, PPE, safe work practices,
and emergency evacuation procedures.
New energized electrical work permit
requirements ensure people performing
this type of work are properly trained
and equipped.
Updated PPE requirements reflect the
latest technology.
New annexes and cross-references
enhance knowledge.
New format and organization save time,
reduce confusion, and eliminate mistakes!
The entire document follows the
NEC® Style Manual.
Safety Related Work Practices has
been moved to Chapter 1, to emphasize
the topics importance.
Chapter 1 has been totally
reorganized, with all related provisions
grouped together in a logical
progression.
Avoid costly accidents before they happen
by putting NFPA 70E to work at your
facility. (Approx. 110 pp., 2004)
