today's NFPA 70E with complete knowledge about electrical
safety and compliance.
Full 2012 NFPA 70E
text and the whys behind technical changes make this the most
expansive source. Commentary from electrical safety experts explains
the intent behind rules, why the Standard has changed, and how to
comply. Learn about safe work practices, PPE, lockout/tagout, and
how to conduct safety audits and reviews.
- Exclusive commentary in the new
Handbook explains provisions in the 2012 NFPA 70E
and their intent, breaks down tasks, and provides full-color
visuals of equipment and scenarios.
- The Handbook includes the entire
2012 NFPA 70E text for hands-on reference.
- New full-color photos, charts, and
illustrations bring safety concepts to life -- invaluable on the
job and for worker training.
- Case studies recount electrical incidents
and their effects.
- Summaries show at a glance what's new in
each chapter.
- Commentary is in blue and revised
NFPA 70E text is shaded tan, with vertical rules indicating
additions and bullets for deletions.
- Supplements include extracts from the
2011 NEC® Handbook on installation rules that
facilitate NFPA 70E compliance.
Avoid tragedies by correctly assessing
risks, determining hazards, and selecting PPE.
The NFPA 70E Handbook helps you work
smarter and be able to answer questions about the vital difference
between "risk assessment" and "hazard identification" and how the
new NFPA 70E separates and defines these issues. You'll
understand first-time direct current (dc) coverage that ensures
you're ready to work safely with new technologies; and why the 2*
designation has been eliminated to clarify that all H/R Category 2
tasks require full-head PPE.
Get the NFPA 70E answers you
need, direct from the Standard source!
Keep your workplace electrical injury-free and
protect your reputation for safety with the revised, full-color
NFPA 70E Handbook for Electrical Safety in the Workplace.
