Electrical Safety Overview
Electrical Safety at LLE involves
- Shock hazard awareness and prevention
- Fire hazard awareness and prevention
- Explosion hazard awareness and prevention
LLE's university research environment must safely accommodate
- Complex equipment configurations
- Numerous equipment (quantity and variety)
- Experimental designs and temporary configurations
- Personnel with sometimes limited experience or training
- Laboratories hosting numerous individuals with independent schedules 24/7
LLE personnel (students and staff) must be aware of and continuously
work to minimize risks inherent with the diverse equipment environment — both
for themselves and their co-workers.
