Have eyes in the back of head. For most work, the electrical
equipment must be de-energized because there is a high risk of
injury to workers if they work on energized equipment. It may be
possible to schedule such work outside of normal work hours to
limit the inconvenience.
Sometimes it is not practicable to completely disconnect low-
voltage equipment before working on it.
For example, it may be necessary to have equipment running in
order to test it or fine-tune it. In such cases, the work must be
performed by workers who are qualified and authorized to do the
work. They must follow written safe work procedures.
You should observe the following important precautions when
working on energized equipment, but note that these are not a
substitute for proper training and written safe work procedures.
