Qualified Persons
The equipment covered by this publication must be selected for a spe-
cific application and it must be operated and maintained by Qualified
Persons who are thoroughly trained and knowledgeable in the instal-
lation, operation, and maintenance of underground power distribution
equipment along with the associated hazards that may be involved. This
publication is written only for such qualified persons and is not intended
to be a substitute for adequate training and experience in safety proce-
dures for this type of equipment. Proper installation is the responsibility
of the operating and construction personnel and the utility performing
and authorizing the work. Completion of these instructions implies no
further warranty by the manufacturer.
A
Qualified Person is defined in the National Electrical Code (NEC/
NFPA-70) as:
One who has skills and knowledge related to the construction and op-
eration of the electrical equipment and installations and has received
safety training to recognize and avoid the hazards involved.
The specific electrical safety training requirements to be considered a
qualified person are detailed in
NFPA-70E, Article 110 .1(D), Employee
Training
. Some of the requirements from the 2012 edition are shown
below. For the specific detailed training requirements for a Qualified
Person make certain to refer to the most recent applicable edition.
These training requirements would include, but are not limited, to the
following key points:
• The skills and techniques necessary to distinguish exposed energized
parts from other parts of electrical equipment.
• The skills and techniques necessary to determine the proper approach
distances corresponding to the voltages to which the qualified person
will be exposed.
• The proper use of the special precautionary techniques, personal pro-
tective equipment, insulating and shielding materials, and insulated tools
for working on or near exposed energized parts of electrical equipment.
• Tasks performed less often than once per year have additional training
requirements.
These instructions are intended only for such qualified persons. They
are not intended to be a substitute for adequate training and experience
in safety procedures for this type of equipment. Additionally, the recom-
mendations in this instruction bulletin are not intended to supersede or
to take the place of established utility safety guidelines and established
practices. If there is any question, consult with your foreman or supervi-
sor, as appropriate.
Please refer to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.399 and NFPA 70E Articles 100 and 110.
