In addition to proper job training and safety procedures,
always follow these basic precautions:
–
Use only properly insulated tools.
–
Remove all metallic objects (key chains, glasses, rings,
watches, or any other jewelry).
–
Wear safety glasses.
–
Test circuits before touching.
–
Lock out and tag any circuit breakers/fuses when
possible to prevent accidental turn on.
–
Be aware of potential hazards in the area you are
working before entering the equipment.
–
Identify exposed hazardous electrical potentials on
connectors, wiring, etc. (note the condition of these
circuits, especially any wiring).
–
Use care when removing or replacing any covers –
avoid contacting any circuits.
–
Use gloves when handling thermally hot components
inside the rectifier. Transformers are very hot after
sustained operation.
