Hand Protection for Electrical Shock and Arc Flash Hazards Written by Hugh Hoagland and Zarheer Jooma, BSEE, M.S. on October 1, 2024. Posted in Worksite Safety. Read the article here: https://incident-prevention.com/blog/hand-protection-for-electrical-shock-and-arc-flash-hazards/ Ensuring proper hand protection against electrical shock and arc flash hazards is vital for worker safety. This podcast delves into the evolution of protective gloves, highlighting advancements in multihazard protection, safe work practices, glove testing methods, and updates on international standards. Key Takeaways: •Evolution of Hand Protection: Transition from basic leather gloves to advanced multihazard protective gear. •Standards and Testing: Overview of ASTM D120-22 specifications and glove testing procedures. •Safe Work Practices: Importance of integrating proper glove use into daily safety protocols. •International Standards Updates: Recent developments in global standards for electrical safety gloves. FAQs: 1. What are the main types of hand protection used for electrical work? There are two main types of hand protection used for electrical work: Rubber Insulating Gloves: These gloves are designed to protect against electrical shock. They are made of specialized rubber that is electrically strong and tested to withstand high voltages. They are classified according to their maximum AC use voltage, ranging from Class 00 (500V) to Class 4 (36kV). Protector Gloves: These gloves are worn over rubber insulating gloves to provide mechanical and thermal protection. Traditionally made of leather, they are now available in various materials and designs, including cut-resistant fabrics and composite materials, thanks to standards like ASTM F3258. 2. Why are protector gloves worn over rubber insulating gloves? Protector gloves serve several important purposes: Mechanical Protection: They protect the rubber insulating gloves from punctures, cuts, and abrasions, which can compromise their electrical integrity. Thermal Protection: They offer protection against heat and flames, particularly important in arc flash situations. Grip Enhancement: Leather protector gloves can improve grip, especially in oily conditions. Newer materials and designs can offer even better grip and dexterity. 3. What are the key considerations for selecting hand protection for electrical work? Choosing appropriate hand protection involves assessing the specific hazards present in the work environment: Shock Hazard: If a shock hazard exists, rubber insulating gloves with the appropriate voltage rating are mandatory. Arc Flash Hazard: If an arc flash hazard is present, arc-rated gloves are required. The arc rating should match or exceed the potential incident energy calculated for the task. Mechanical Hazards: Consider the need for cut, puncture, and abrasion resistance based on the work environment. Environmental Conditions: Factors such as temperature, humidity, and the presence of chemicals should influence glove selection. Dexterity Requirements: Choose gloves that allow for sufficient dexterity to perform the task safely and efficiently. 4. How often should rubber insulating gloves be tested? OSHA mandates that rubber insulating gloves be electrically tested every six months using the ASTM D120 proof test. Additionally, daily visual inspection and air inflation testing are required before each use. 5. What are the recent advancements in hand protection for electrical work? Several advancements have improved hand protection for electrical workers: New Materials: ASTM F3258 allows for protector gloves made from materials other than leather, offering better dexterity, grip, and cut resistance while meeting safety requirements. Multi-Hazard Protection: Gloves are increasingly designed to protect against multiple hazards, combining electrical insulation with cut resistance, arc flash protection, and other features. Enhanced Comfort and Fit: Innovations in design and materials have led to more comfortable and better-fitting gloves, improving user experience and compliance. 6. What are the challenges of hand protection in clean room environments? Clean room environments often restrict the use of leather due to concerns about contamination. This poses challenges for electrical workers who require both shock and arc flash protection. ASTM F3258 addresses this gap by allowing for non-leather protector gloves, but finding suitable options for low-voltage installations with both hazards remains a challenge. 7. How do international standards compare to US standards for hand protection? IEC 60903, the international standard for electrical insulating gloves, differs from ASTM D120 in several aspects, including the absence of a thickness requirement and the inclusion of composite gloves. The upcoming IEC 63232 will address arc testing methods and arc-rated glove standards for international use, aligning more closely with US practices. 8. What should workers do when exposed to both shock and arc flash hazards? When both shock and arc flash hazards are present, workers must use rubber insulating gloves with the appropriate voltage rating and arc-rated protector gloves. OSHA mandates arc-rated gloves for incident energies exceeding 14 cal/cm². Selecting gloves that meet the latest ASTM standards (F696 or F3258) ensures adequate protection against both hazards. #ElectricalSafety #ArcFlashProtection #HandProtection #WorkerSafety #PPE #SafetyStandards ________________________________ This podcast is sponsored by T&D Powerskills.

This episode is a replay of an interview I did circa 2017 with patent attorney Stephan Kinsella.Kinsella is the author of "Against Intellectual Property," and in our time together, he argues that IP laws, particularly patents and copyrights, are incompatible with traditional property rights and hinder innovation and progress. The conversation explores the origins of these laws, their impact on musicians and other creatives, and practical advice for navigating the current system while protecting artistic integrity. The discussion also delves into Austrian economics and how it provides a framework for understanding the issues with IP laws. Kinsella foresees a future where the increasing ease of circumventing these laws will pressure the industry to adapt to more free-market principles.Episode highlights:00:24 Stefan Kinsella on Intellectual Property02:43 Understanding Property Rights06:45 Austrian Economics and Intellectual Property20:08 The History and Problems of Copyright26:59 Practical Advice for Musicians42:13 Future of Intellectual Property44:23 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsResources mentioned:Against Intellectual Property by Stephan KinsellaStephan's websiteAbout the guest:Stephan Kinsella is an attorney and libertarian writer in Houston.

The Great Shark Snapshot is back for its second year. Divers and snorkelers are asked to record all their sightings of sharks and rays in the Shark Trust Shark Log. This event runs from July 22 -30, 2023. Last year over 200 divers from 14 countries provided 1800 entries into the log. It has been 50 years since scientist first discovered the Great Pacific Garbage Patch 600 miles northeast of Hawaii. It has grown to 1.6 million square miles - two times the size of Texas. Divers Alert Network and PADI conducted a day-long Safety Seminar for the Dive Community at PADI HQ in CA. The seminar featured a number of short presentations along with in-water demonstrations. The event was open to PADI Club members and dive instructors. Aggressor Adventures is now offering a consumer protection program StormCheck for missed days of diving due to named tropical storms. If you diving or charter is impacted by a named storm, you will get a voucher for the missed days. Commentary Recently Aqualung has announced that they will return to the DEMA Show in 2023. This is very welcome news as in the past several years, major scuba equipment manufacturers have not attended. DEMA Show is our big opportunity to interact with various exhibitors, evaluate product, engage in dialog and make future purchasing decisions. It is vital to a health dive industry. I commend Aqualung on this decision and hope that other big players come to the same realization. This trade show matters. Oceana recently published a report titled A Simple Solution - How President Biden can meet offshore clean energy goals and prevent new offshore drilling. Here are their four recommendations. President Biden must uphold his promise to end new offshore oil and gas leasing in his 5-year plan. Use his authority under section 12c to permanently protect areas from new offshore drilling Congress must pass legislation to reverse the linking of offshore wind leases to offshore oil and gas leases BSEE must seek transformative changes to oil and gas safety culture through inspection and enforcement and reduce the reliance on industry-written standards.

If a beginning SLP were to ask me for my absolute best, single piece of advice to create change, my advice would easily be to research your practice. It's true. I've learned the most game-changing strategies from my research over the past 20 years. Perhaps, more important, I also learned the ineffectual strategies through researching my practice and cut them out, making better use of limited therapy time. Researching your practice will give your clients a voice in letting you know what's effective and what isn't. Their behavior is communication. This is the key to innovating practice: Listen to your clients. This episode walks you through the simple steps to research your practice in the real world today. Details matter. To learn how to research your practice with step-by-step support, check out Chapter 10 of my book "Speech Sound Disorders: Comprehensive Evaluation and Treatment" If you're looking to be "One and Done," by putting research into practice with weekly ready-for-use, educationally-rich materials that give you everything you need for therapy, teletherapy, and home practice, check out my Sparkle in School Membership.

Buy LEADERSHIP FUSION: Best Practices to Lead and Influence#SponsoredConnect with Andy:https://libertyee.com/Bio: Andy FoersterAndy develops leaders who deliver results at all organizational levels and helps people become more effective in their leadership roles. He does this from the perspective of someone who has been a leader at all levels, including CEO. He does not simply teach about leadership; rather he facilitates a multi-dimensional application and action program that helps leaders know themselves, know their people, and know their stuff.Andy Foerster graduated from the US Naval Academy in 1981, spent seven years on active duty as a nuclear submarine officer, and thirty years in the private sector in several management and executive roles. Andy has a proven history of monetizing technological innovation by providing customers with high-return solutions. He has organized and operated highly successful businesses as a CEO, President, CTO, and General Manager by using Internet of Things (IoT)-related technologies in industries as diverse as lighting control, uninterruptible power systems, and digital signage.In Andy's many years of experience, he has found that successful organizations must have two things: 1) Engaged employees empowered by positive leaders, and 2) A business operating system that brings a disciplined – and continuously improved – way of execution. For Andy, “The Magic Is In The Middle,” where effective leaders inspire employees to overachieve in a consistent way.Andy has a passion for teaching and mentoring; that is a big reason for his success in the business world. From helping junior officers qualify in submarines to mentoring new General Managers in his companies as they learned to develop a value proposition and execute a strategy, Andy has always practiced leading as a coach.

Are you scared of Nuclear Energy? And when you read the title, the first image or thought that came to your mind was Chernobyl, or maybe Fukushima? Well, there is a lot of misinformation out there about the subject of Nuclear Energy. So, today we'll be talking about the misinformation and educating ourselves on the subject with my interview with Nuclear Energy expert Steven Curtis. So, without further ado, let's get into it. Go to www.thestandard.academy/magazine to become one of the first to get my digital magazine for free that'll help you create a kick-ass life. Mr. Curtis was a 38-year resident of Nevada with a close association with the spent nuclear fuel issue and a 15-year career with the DOE-NV. He attended his first Yucca Mountain meeting in 1981 and has been associated with the project academically and educationally ever since. As a student employee, Mr. Curtis was employed at the whole-body radiation counter for people at the Environmental Protection Agency campus at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV). He began his tenure at DOE-NV as a project and operations officer for the Soviet Verification Program. After the testing program ended, he was recruited into a nuclear emergency response where he served as a nuclear technical team leader for Nuclear Emergency Support Team (NEST) and Radiological Consequence Management Teams associated with the Federal Radiological Management and Assessment (FRMAC) emergency management interagency nuclear response posture. He concurrently served as a program manager in such programs as NEST Research and Development, the Non-proliferation experiment, the Aerial Measuring System, the National Center for Counter-Terrorism (NCCT), and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) Project Omega deployment to Kazakhstan in support of conventional explosives in the Deglin Mountain Soviet testing tunnels. Mr. Curtis served in both the active duty Army and the Nevada National Guard for a combined 11 years as an Armor officer and strategic communications expert. He was responsible for all Army communications strategic testing throughout the European and Middle-East major commands. His tactical experience includes a rotation at the National Training Center as an Armor Company Commander and 7 years as a staff officer and company commander in the 1/221 Armor Battalion in Las Vegas. After departing the DOE, he was engaged in development and integration work at UNLV and Desert Research Institute (DRI) in areas of national security. As proposal manager, he led the successful team in Nevada to secure the FAA designation as an FAA National UAS Test Site. He currently works as a subject matter expert and senior consultant to Readiness Resource Group in areas of training, exercise, counterterrorism, local responder emergency management, nuclear technology, and health physics. He has served as President of the Nevada sections of both the Health Physics Society and the American Nuclear Society and is currently working under a small grant from the American Nuclear Society Operations and Power Division to develop and conduct educational seminars in Nevada for the public and for Government Officials. He holds a BSEE and a Master's Degree in Health Physics, both from UNLV. Mr. Curtis has been active in STEM activities for schools as a 27-year volunteer coordinator for the High School Science Bowl, Co-founder of Skybot Challenge, an engineering-based competition for students in 3-D robotics (UAS), and a consistent speaker in the Clark County School District classrooms to encourage students to find their passion through continued education.

The Explore Purpose Podcast inspires you to live a life of meaning and purpose so that you can make a greater impact on the world around you. Host: Conrad Weaver Guest: Scott Ryser Today's Episode: At Work as in Heaven About Scott: Scott Ryser grew up going to church every week but never knew God. When Scott finally dedicated his life to Christ in 1995, he knew he was making a decision about his Tuesday, not just his Sunday. Since then, Scott has spent most of his time wrestling with the practical challenges of living out his faith at work every day. When the opportunity to start his company arose, Scott named it Yakabod, meaning "God's glory," pushing into the question, "Is it even possible for a company to give God glory?" And not by doing church stuff at the office, but by doing work in a way that glorifies God. As Scott slowly made progress, the question became: "Is it possible to partner with God at work every day?" At this point, Scott began to realize the Lord plays by a completely different set of rules, and things just work differently in His Kingdom. This ultimately led to an even bigger question: Can a company look more like the Kingdom of Heaven? Scott is a passionate leader with a head for business, an entrepreneurial spirit, and some basic tech savvy. He's not allowed to write code anymore - but over the past 25+ years he has designed, built and/or managed IT initiatives ranging from small pilot projects to enterprise overhauls using Internet technologies. A "startup guy" at heart, Scott's spent nearly two decades working with a great team to build Yakabod into a premier niche solutions provider. His previous corporate experience also includes management positions with two national system integrators. Some of his best strategic thinking happens while he's deeply immersed in adventures like thru-hiking, rock climbing, snowboarding or bike touring. (Or maybe that's how he rationalizes the time off.) Scott is an avid reader and a student of business - but is happy to be done with his formal education, having earned an MSEE from The Johns Hopkins University and a BSEE from University of Akron. He serves a number of regional organizations in an advisory or board role, including techfrederick, FITCI, crossedBridges, New Spire Arts, and Woodsboro Bank. Scott was also founder and lead vocalist for modern rock bands milenine and Cry of Mercy for over a decade - and hopes to start another band soon.
