Bucket Truck Operator Tips - Eliminating Electrocution Hazards
Bucket Trucks are an indispensible utility vehicle of the modern day industry. Amongst the many hazards associated with working with bucket trucks, electrocution is a major cause of injuries and fatalities. Training on how to identify and stay away from electrical hazards is crucial for decreasing the number of accidents involving electrocution.
Overhead utility lines pose a particularly dangerous problem for workers who use bucket trucks to perform non-electrical work. Under particular circumstances, even standard utility and telephone drops to houses can generate sufficient electrical amperage to kill a person. The dos and don'ts discussed below offer safety suggestions for avoiding the danger of electrocution faced by employees who are not trained electricians.
* Always insulate nearby energy lines and use correctly rated protective gear if your job entails electricity in any kind such as putting up or taking down decorative lights.
* Insulated buckets help to protect you from electrocution. Nonetheless, you should constantly be on your guard to make sure that your gear can not accidently create any electrical paths to ground.
* Treat all utility lines as being energized and don't touch lines with bare hands.
* Examine insulation barriers and all gear for wetness, dirt, worn spots, cracks and other forms of deterioration.
* Plan ahead and ask the utility firm to shut down nearby energy lines or install protective insulation for the duration of the time you will be operating near them.
* In general, keep yourself and all objects a minimum of ten feet away from all electrical lines.
* Always use non-conductive tools and personal protective gear that have the correct ratings for the job.
* Always use insulated buckets when operating around electrical lines.
OSHA safety regulations on working near insulated electrical wires state that for voltages of less than 300 the minimum distance workers should maintain is 3 feet.
NIOSH, nevertheless, recommends that for wires with less than and up to 50Kv, the minimum distance should be 10 feet. For voltages over 50kv, NIOSH recommends 10 feet plus .4 inches for every kilovolt over 50.
We would like to mention that the regulation on safety clearance between crane loads and electrical lines (CFR 1926.550(a)(15)(i)) recommends a minimum distance of at least 10 feet for lines that are rated less than 50kv. Other regulations related to electrical safety standards may be found in 29 CFR 1926.950(c)(1), 1926.451(f)(6), 926.550(a)(15), 1926.416(a)(1), and 1926.453(b)(3).
Given that suspended utility lines are typically not insulated, we recommend that you keep a minimum distance of ten feet from all power lines. It is also a recommended "best" practice to treat all electrical wires as being energized.
Workers who operate bucket trucks face a lot of challenges while doing their job. In addition to electrical safety, workers require training on how to stop themselves from falling, deal with inclement weather, position the vehicle on uneven or rough terrains and manage traffic. Training For Bucket Truck Operators, consequently, must be comprehensive and should train the operator to manage all safety aspects of their job.
