Minimum safe approach distance
Min i mum safe ap proach dis tances to energised
power lines and their as so ci ated parts must be ob -
served wile op er at ing the MHP.
Figure 1. - Minimum Safe Approach Distance
The MHP is not electrically insulated. Death
or serious injury can result from contact
with, or inadequate clearance from, an
energised conductor. Do not go closer than
the minimum safe approach distance as
defined by ANSI.
ANSI pub li ca tions de fine min i mum dis tances that
must be ob served when work ing near bus bars and
energised power lines. Fig ure 1 and Ta ble 1 are re -
