Electrical Shock and Contact Release Refresher Training


An electrical shock may cause burns or it may leave no visible mark on the skin. In either case, an electrical current passing through the body can cause internal damage, cardiac arrest or other injury. Both OSHA and the NFPA recognize that shock safety should be carefully considered at 50 volts and above. The NFPA’s, "Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace", requires people who work around electricity to be trained annually in methods of safe contact release. That is the primary objective of this refresher training.
