Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.333(a)(1): "Deenergized parts." Live parts to which an employee may be exposed shall be deenergized before the employee works on or near them, unless the employer can demonstrate that deenergizing introduces additional or increased hazards or is infeasible due to equipment design or operational limitations. Live parts that operate at less than 50 volts to ground need not be deenergized if there will be no increased exposure to electrical burns or to explosion due to electric arcs. a. On or about April 14, 2018, located in the indoor substation, employees were performing preventative maintenance activities inside the primary side of the 13,200 VAC Square D switchboard, MDP-2, without deenergizing live parts, thereby exposing employees to arc flash/shock hazards.
