    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_safety_standards

    The electrical safety develops with the technical progress. In 1989 OSHA [1] promulgated a much-needed regulation in the General Industry Regulations. Several standards are defined for control of hazardous energy, or lockout/tagout. In 1995 OSHA was successful in promulgation of regulations for utility. [2]

    Process Safety Management of Highly Hazardous Chemicals is a regulation promulgated by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). [1] It defines and regulates a process safety management (PSM) program for plants using, storing, manufacturing, handling or carrying out on-site movement of hazardous materials above defined amount thresholds.

  6. Hierarchy of hazard controls - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchy_of_hazard_controls

    Employers must provide PPE when other control measures are still being developed or cannot adequately reduce hazardous exposure to safe levels. [16] Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) minimizes risks to health and safety when worn correctly, including items like earplugs, goggles, respirators, and gloves.

  7. Electrical equipment in hazardous areas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_equipment_in...

    When equipment must be placed in a hazardous location, it can be designed to reduce the risk of fire or explosion. Intrinsic safety designs equipment to operate using minimal energy, insufficient to cause ignition. Explosion-proofing designs equipment to contain ignition hazards, prevent entry of hazardous substances, and, contain any fire or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_controls

    The OSHA permissible exposure limit (PEL) is 90 dBA as an 8 hr-TWA, using a 5 dBA exchange rate. [22] The exchange rate means that when the noise level is increased by either 3 dBA (according to the NIOSH REL) or 5 dBA (according to the OSHA PEL), the amount of time a person can be exposed to a certain noise level to receive the same dose is ...

  9. Process safety - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_safety

    Process safety is an interdisciplinary engineering domain focusing on the study, prevention, and management of large-scale fires, explosions and chemical accidents (such as toxic gas clouds) in process plants or other facilities dealing with hazardous materials, such as refineries and oil and gas (onshore and offshore) production installations.
