As part of our ongoing efforts to improve safety on construction sites, we are launching an Electrical Roll Up Initiative to promote basic electrical safety awareness throughout the industry.
The initiative:
- highlights the need for construction sites to inspect electrical cords and Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters, extension cords and power tool cords;
- provides basic inspection and maintenance guidelines for construction contractors on common electrical issues related to extension cords and power tools; and
- allows participants to identify defective equipment during the “Roll-Up” and note the defect rate of equipment inspected and removed from service.
