Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 004A Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.107(b)(10): Illumination. When spraying areas are illuminated through glass panels or other transparent materials, only fixed lighting units shall be used as a source of illumination. Panels shall effectively isolate the spraying area from the area in which the lighting unit is located, and shall be of a noncombustible material of such a nature or so protected that breakage will be unlikely. Panels shall be so arranged that normal accumulations of residue on the exposed surface of the panel will not be raised to a dangerous temperature by radiation or conduction from the source of illumination. a). On or About July 8, 2015 Employees conducting spray operations in an unapproved or non compliant spray booth were exposed to explosion hazards because they were using six, 2 bulb 4 foot fluorescent light fixtures hanging from the ceiling and two, 2 head halogen construction lamps as indirect light sources for materials being sprayed. These fixtures were not of the explosion proof type and were covered with overspray dust.
