Text For Citation: 03 Item/Group: 032 Hazard: REFINERY
29 CFR 1910.305(g)(1)(iv)(D) Unless specifically permitted otherwise in paragraph (g)(1)(ii) of this section, flexible cords and cables may not be used: Where attached to building surfaces; A. The employer did not ensure that flexible cords and cables were not used as permanent wiring by being attached to building surfaces. This violation was identified during inspections of the facility from November 2009 to March 2010, Silver Eagle Refining Inc., 2355 South 1100 West, Woods Cross, UT, 84087. At the time of the inspection, Compliance Officers observed flexible cords and cables in the welding shop to run 110v power to an air compressor. The cord was attached to the building surface by means of a "zip tie." As a result, employees were exposed to electrical hazards which can result in electric shock and/or fire hazards. This may be a system-wide occurrence that requires evaluation of all wiring and power supply throughout the facility.
