List down any three reasons and prevention for electrical hazards
Reasons for Electrical Hazards:
- Poor Maintenance: Damaged insulation, or bad grounding can cause problems.
- Lack of Protection: Not enough circuit breakers or fuses can lead to power issues during overloads.
- Water contact : Electrical equipment near water can cause shocks.
Prevention Measures:
- Regular Checks: Keep up with maintenance to ensure everything works well.
- Good Insulation and Grounding: Use quality cables and make sure everything is properly grounded.
- Staff Training: Teach employees about electrical safety and what to do in an emergency.
What Are Electrical Hazards?
Electrical hazards are situations where electrical energy can cause harm, like shocks, burns, or fires.
Why Are electric hazard Important in Manufacturing?
Electrical hazards can lead to serious problems, such as putting workers at risk, causing issues with regulations, and resulting in financial losses from accidents. These accidents can drive up insurance costs and harm the company’s reputation.
What are the Control Hierarchy Substances Hazardous?
The summary of the E-R-I-C-P-D safety strategy is as follows:
The E-R-I-C-P-D safety strategy involves:
- Eliminate: Remove hazards entirely.
- Reduce: Decrease hazardous substance use or exposure time.
- Isolate: Use barriers to keep hazards away from workers.
- Control: Employ engineering controls to manage exposure.
- PPE: Use personal protective equipment for safety.
- Discipline: Ensure compliance with safety procedures through training and monitoring.
. What is radiation hazard
Radiation hazards are harmful exposures to ionizing radiation. Common sources include X-rays, gamma rays, UV rays, and radioactive materials.
Give three controls for the radiation hazard.
Controls for Radiation Hazards:
- Elimination or Substitution: Get rid of radioactive materials or use safer alternatives.
- Shielding: Use barriers like lead or concrete to block harmful radiation.
- Access Control: Limit entry to areas with radiation using signs and barriers to keep people safe.
