The documentation I was given to justify the safety statements is OSHA 1910.333 printout where it talks about employees coming in contact with energized circuit parts "indirectly through some other conductive object." Specifically 1910.333(a)(2)
The paragraph then refers to specific work practices in paragraph (c).
1910.333(c)
"Working on or near exposed energized parts."
1910.333(c)(1)
"Application." This paragraph applies to work performed on exposed live parts (involving either direct contact or by means of tools or materials) or near enough to them for employees to be exposed to any hazard they present.
Does this section refer to working with control equipment that you can't reach energized parts without using a tool?
It "seems" to me that someone is taking a sentence out of context and using it to justify something else. Am I all wet or do you folks see it the same way?
