Electrical Safety

Electricity can be our best friend - or our worst enemy. When handled improperly, electricity can injure or kill. This interactive web book uses text and video to explain the dangers of working around and on energized low-voltage equipment and near high-voltage conductors. It is written for supervisors and workers who work around and with electrical equipment and near power lines.
