Power is one of the most important subjects that we consider at our homes and industry. Current must certainly be cut whenever we work with electricity before we start to work. It must be known that electric power never forgives and all precautions must be taken. What are these precautions? First of all, power supply panels and fuses must be stored in a closed media. Floors of all panels existing in workshops must be covered with an insulating material, which does not conduct current. An employee or employees, who are responsible for works relating to electricity, shall intervene in any defect, which might occur in workplaces. All electrical machinery and benches existing in the workplace must be properly grounded. Grounding shall be carried out for body of each machine, besides panel grounding, by drawing a separate wire via bodies of the machines and using suitable grounding rods. All grounding installations shall be inspected each year by an authorized expert. These are very important for ensuring a safe workplace.
The instructions for occupational health and safety relating to electricity contain all relevant issues in detail. We should see and examine the relevant articles in the instructions, refresh our information and follow the relevant literature. Information in more detail may be obtained from books. However, we, especially, inform our employees. The reason for most of accidents is ignorance. Employers are responsible for informing their employees too.
