Electric systems
High voltage
High voltage electric work involves tasks related to electrical systems and equipment that operate at high voltage levels. This includes installation, maintenance, repair, and troubleshooting of high voltage systems and components. High voltage electric work requires specialized training, knowledge, and adherence to strict safety protocols to ensure the protection of workers and the prevention of electrical accidents. It may involve working with high voltage power lines, transformers, switchgear, substations, and other high voltage equipment. The work involves handling high voltage cables, conducting insulation testing, performing electrical connections, and ensuring compliance with electrical codes and regulations. Safety measures such as personal protective equipment, lockout/tagout procedures, and proper grounding techniques are essential in high voltage electric work to mitigate the risks associated with working with high electrical energy.
- Low Voltage
Low voltage electric work involves tasks related to electrical systems and equipment operating at lower voltage levels, commonly found in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. It includes installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of low voltage systems and components such as outlets, switches, and control systems. Safety precautions and adherence to electrical codes are important in this type of work.
- Medium Voltage
Medium voltage electric work involves tasks related to electrical systems and equipment operating at intermediate voltage levels, typically ranging. It includes installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of medium voltage systems and components such as transformers, switchgear, and distribution lines. Safety protocols, specialized training, and compliance with electrical codes are crucial in medium voltage electric work.
