Text For Citation: 04 Item/Group: 001 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.303(b)(2): Listed or labeled electrical equipment was not used or installed in accordance with instructions included in the listing or labeling. (a) Facility at 310 Bourne Avenue (building 50) in Rumford, RI: On or about March 13, 2024, employees were exposed to electrical hazards, where three pieces of electrical equipment (including one extension cord) on the west side of the DeVilbiss Paint booth, were plugged into a mounted Tripp Lite relocatable power tap. For Reference: Underwriters Laboratories (UL), refers to power strips as Relocatable Power Taps (RPTs) and, in its "General Information for Electrical Equipment Directory" (sometimes called the UL white book or UL Directory) contains instructions that require UL-listed RPTs to be directly connected to a permanently installed branch circuit receptacle; they are not to be series-connected to other RPTs or connected to extension cords.
