Visually Inspect… Portable cord and plug connected equipment and flexible cord sets (extension cords) shall be visually inspected before use on any shift for external defects: – Loose parts – Deformed or missing pins – Damage to outer jacket or insulation – Evidence of possible internal damage

Inspect Your Tools before you use!

Portable Electric Tools & Cords Portable equipment must be handled in a manner which will not cause damage. Flexible electric cords connected to equipment may not be used for raising or lowering the equipment. Flexible cords may not be fastened with staples or otherwise hung in such a fashion as could damage the outer jacket or insulation.

Always plug into a GFCI- Wall Outlet or Portable A GFCI is device intended for the protection of persons that functions to de-energize a circuit.A GFCI is device intended for the protection of persons that functions to de-energize a circuit.

How does the GFCI work GFCIs constantly monitor electricity flowing in a circuit.GFCIs constantly monitor electricity flowing in a circuit. If the electricity flowing into the circuit differs by even a slight amount from that returning, the GFCI will quickly shut off the current flowing through that circuit.If the electricity flowing into the circuit differs by even a slight amount from that returning, the GFCI will quickly shut off the current flowing through that circuit. GFCIs work quickly, so they can help protect persons from severe electric shocks and electrocution.GFCIs work quickly, so they can help protect persons from severe electric shocks and electrocution.

Always Test Your GFCI Before Using!

If your using GFCI’s at home install the GFCI on the first outlet of that circuit.

Recommended areas for GFCI’s to be installed or used.…. Bathrooms over your sink or tub Kitchens (sink area) Basements unfinished. Garages Cord and Plug Deicing and Snow Melting Equipment. On any portable electric equipment Pools and hot tubs Fountains Boat houses Wet Bar

It’s your life Protect Yourself!
