Electrical Hazards
High Voltage
When servicing or repairing an air conditioning unit, the possibility of serious or
even fatal injury from electrical shocks exists. Extreme care must be used when
working with an operating air conditioning system. Lethal voltage can exist on
connections on the high voltage side of the system.
Precautions
1. When working on high voltage circuits on the air conditioning units, do not
make any rapid moves. If a tool drops, do not grab for it. People do not
contact high voltage wires on purpose. It occurs from an unplanned
movement.
2. Use tools with insulated handles that are in good condition. Never hold
metal tools in your hand if exposed, energized conductors are in reach.
3. Treat all wires and connections as high voltage until a meter or wring
diagram show different.
4. Never work alone on high voltage circuits on an air conditioning unit,
another person should always be standing by in the event of an accident
to shut off the air conditioning unit and to aid a victim.
5. Have electrically insulated gloves, cable cutters, and safety glasses
available in the immediate vicinity in the event of an accident.
First Aid
IMMEDIATE First Aid must be initiated after a person has received an electrical
shock. Check for pulse and breathing; perform CPR (Cardio Pulmonary
Resuscitation) if either is absent. Obtain immediate medical assistance.
The source of shock must be immediately removed by either shutting down the
power or removing the victim from the source. If it is not possible to shut off the
power, the wire should be cut with either an insulated instrument (e.g. a wooden
handle axe or cable cutters with heavily insulated handles) or by a rescuer
wearing electrically insulated gloves and safety glasses. Whichever method is
used do not look at the wire while it is being cut. The ensuing flash could cause
burns and blindness.
If the victim has to be removed from the live circuit, pull the victim off with a non
conductive material. Use the victim’s coat, or rope, wood or loop your belt
around the victim’s leg or arm and pull the victim off. DO NOT TOUCH the victim.
You can receive a shock from current flowing through the victim’s body. After
