Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 024 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.305(g)(2)(ii): Flexible cords were not used only in continuous lengths without splice or tap: On or about August 28, 2018, there were three instances where flexible cords were not used only in continuous lengths without splice or tap. In two instances, the electrical black tape used for splicing was unraveling; this condition exposed employees to electrical shock hazards. a) The electrical cord from the outside water tank was spliced using wire nuts and electrical tape but left the inside conductors unprotected. b) In the aseptic room, the electrical cord to the industrial fan and just above the employees heads was spliced/repaired with electrical tape. c) In the 6 tray packing area, the electrical cord to the industrial fan was splice/repaired using electrical tape.
