Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.305(g)(2)(iii): Flexible cords and cables were not connected to devices and fittings so that strain relief was provided that would prevent pull from being directly transmitted to joints or terminal screws: On or about February 29, 2016, the employer did not ensure that the flexible cable used to energize the hot water heater in the battery charging room, connected to the electrical outlet near the sink, did not have tension transmitted to the joint or terminal screws of the plug. The cable covering was pulled away one quarter inch exposing employees to electrical hazard from accidental contact with the damaged cable.
