What are the remedies used in electrical voltages up to 1000 volts ?

when working in electrical installations it is necessary to use remedies that will prevent electric shock.They are divided into basic and advanced.The first are able to withstand prolonged exposure to the operating voltage, so they may be used at work without disconnecting the equipment from the network.With regard to the additional funds, they can not 100% protect against electric shock, therefore, applied simultaneously with the main.In this article we will look at what constitutes electroprotective agents in electrical installations up to 1000 V and what requirements they are subject to.

, we will immediately provide a list of electrical safety devices to receive information more available, applied in installations up to 1 kV and explain towhy use each device.So, to a basic package includes:

  1. rubber insulating gloves.Protect your hands from the electric shock.An important requirement - before using it is necessary to check the tightness of the glove.gloves
  2. insulating rod.They are used to install and remove the fuses and mounted portable grounding in electrical installations (EI) and the release of the victim with electric shock.Insulating rod
  3. voltage detectors.Used to determine if the voltage on the current-carrying parts or not.pointer voltage
  4. Hand tools with handles covered with a plastic sheath.It is used to connect directly and repair of electrical installations, with voltage up to 380 volts.Oh what a set of tools to be an electrician, we are told in the corresponding article.Hand tools
  5. Insulating pincers.They help establish tube fuses, as well as remove the insulating lining, fencing panels, etc.Insulating pincers
  6. Clamp allows to measure current, voltage and resistance in the circuit.To learn how to use the current clamp, we described in the relevant article.Clamp

draw your attention to the fact that these devices are designed for use in closed systems and open when the weather is dry.To work in wet weather, it is necessary to use special tools designed for this purpose.

It electroprotective basic tools used in electrical voltage up to 1000.As you can see, the list of small primary devices.Now consider what is included in a set of additional security features.

Additional

when working in electrical installations up to 1 kV enough to use at least one additional protective device.The list includes the following items:

  • Dielectric boots, galoshes and boots.You can use the first two funds only when working in electric installations up to 1000 V in the bots are allowed to operate at any voltage.Electroprotective These funds are needed to isolate the worker from the base on which it stands.Bots
  • Dielectric mats and tracks.Purpose is similar to the previous version, can be used in closed power plant of any voltage.Rubber electrician
  • insulating stand.Prevent direct contact of man with the floor.At voltages less than 1 kV permitted use of electric porcelain insulators without supports.Stand on insulators
  • insulating caps, covers and linings.It protects a person from electric shock and prevent the occurrence of faults.Example of use is shown in the picture: isolation blanket
  • rods for alignment and capacity transfer.Used appropriately in order to bring the potential of the high voltage line in the workplace electricians, as well as to align the potential between the individual shielding kits and devices of large dimensions, whose potential value is not constant.Rods for potential equalization
  • Dielectric ladders and ladders.Helps protect a person from electric shock when working on electric installations.Stairs are made of fiberglass, thereby isolating the worker from the base, which is itself a ladder.Ladder

All listed electroprotective agents in electrical installations up to 1000 V (both basic and optional), it is necessary to check,as well as periodic testing of the dielectric properties.This we will cover in future articles!
