ELECTRICAL SAFETY— This videotape will help employees recognize
and understand electrical hazards. It will also develop understanding of
correct principles to follow in order to avoid injury from electrical hazards.
The videotape starts out by giving a fundamental background of electricity.
It also touches on such areas as lockout procedures, electrical faults,
ground fault circuit interruption, electrical fires and explosions. Finally,
employees are reminded that electrical equipment must be inspected on a
regular basis. (9 Minutes)
#352
LOCKOUT SAFETY — This program will promote the understanding of
a need for lockout procedures and will teach the four critical steps involved
in every lockout. It complies with OSHA’s current lockout standard.
(10 Minutes)

ELECTRICAL HAZARDS — This video reviews how you can get an electrical
shock and three ways a person can become part of an electrical circuit.
It emphasizes that you do not need to be in contact with high voltage to
endanger your life. An interactive segment of five “What’s wrong
with this picture?” examples shows various hazards. (4:31 Minutes)
#474
ELECTRICAL HAZARDS: COMMON MISTAKES — Employees should understand
the need to treat electricity with respect. The three main hazards from
electricity — shock, fire, and explosion are discussed. Four of the
most common electrical hazards are shown. An example of unguarded electricity,
unlabeled electrical panels, extension cord dangers and electrical cord
abuse are shown. (7:53 Minutes)

ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD AWARENESS —
Where do Electromagnetic Fields (EMFs) come from and are they affecting your health? There are
no current standards for EMFs, however, the video discusses one guideline
being used on a voluntary basis. This guideline sets an average exposure
limit of 5,000 milligauss. The video demonstrates where some examples of
work tools/equipment and home appliances fall into the guideline and how
to reduce exposure. Since there is no conclusive evidence regarding EMFs
using prudent avoidance is recommended. (4:25 Minutes)
#508
ELECTRICAL MAINTENANCE — Low voltage can be just as dangerous
as high voltage. This video gives a basic description of current, voltage
and resistance and how they relate to amps, volts and ohms. The video discusses
grounding and bonding. Small shocks can cause involuntary muscle movements
which can cause serious injury through falls. Shock, tissue damage, burns,
fire, and explosion are reviewed. The use of proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), having trained
and authorized personnel perform lockout/tagout procedures, and GFI outlets
and pigtails are covered. (9:47 Minutes)
#528
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): ELECTRICAL — This video reviews
common electrical safety practices. A discussion of personal protective
equipment for electrical safety including hardhats - Type A and B, eye
protection, flash suits, flame retardant clothing, non-conductive footwear,
rubber gloves, fault protection equipment, and non-conductive ladders is
included. (10:02 Minutes)
