Occupational Safety and Health / Legislative basis for labor protection

In an organization, by order of the head, it must be appointed person responsible for the general condition of all electrical installations, which is obliged to organize the fulfillment of the requirements of all regulatory documents and ensure: proper operation and safe operation of electrical installations; organization and carrying out scheduled preventive repairs and preventive tests of electrical equipment, equipment and networks; training, instruction and periodic testing of knowledge of personnel related to the maintenance of electrical installations; availability and timely check of protective equipment and fire-fighting equipment; investigation of accidents and violations of the requirements of the current rules in the operation of electrical installations; maintenance of technical documentation, development of instructions, regulations, etc.

All work carried out in existing electrical installations, in relation to safety measures, according to POT RM 016-2001 / RD 153-34.0-03.150-00 "Intersectoral labor protection rules (safety rules) for the operation of electrical installations", are divided into the following categories:

1) work performed with stress relief;

2) work performed under voltage on current-carrying parts or near them.

Work under voltage on current-carrying parts includes work performed directly on these parts with the use of protective equipment.

Persons with professional training and who have undergone a medical examination upon employment are allowed to service existing electrical installations. Repeated medical examinations of personnel are carried out at least once every 1 years.

Maintenance electrical personnel must know the current Electrical Installation Rules (PUE), the Rules for the technical operation of consumer electrical installations, other labor protection rules for the operation of electrical installations, as well as methods for releasing the victim from the action of electric current and providing first aid.

Electrical personnel must pass a test of knowledge of intersectoral rules on labor protection (safety rules) during the operation of electrical installations, rules and instructions for technical operation, fire safety, use of protective equipment, installation of electrical installations within the requirements for the relevant position or profession, as well as release techniques injured from the action of electric current and first aid, and have the appropriate qualification group for electrical safety II-V.

The organization of the operation of electrical installations provides for the maintenance of the necessary technical documentation.

The documentation includes:

operational log, which notes the acceptance and delivery of shifts, orders of the head of the shop on changing operating modes, etc.;
log book of work on orders and orders;
log of defects and malfunctions on electrical equipment;
a journal or statement of indications of instrumentation and electric meters, as well as a journal for monitoring the presence, condition and accounting of protective equipment;
a work production log and work order forms for the production of repair and adjustment work in electrical installations with a voltage above 1000 V;
accounting log for the issuance and return of keys from electrical installations;
logbook for checking knowledge of the norms and rules of work in electrical installations;
register of assignment of group I on electrical safety to non-electrotechnical personnel;
fire safety briefing logs at the workplace;
folders of active and closed orders, etc.

Organizational events, ensuring the performance of work in electrical installations, are the execution of work by a work permit or order; obtaining a work permit; supervision during work; registration of breaks in work and transitions to another place of work; completion of work.

Organizational and technical measures carried out during work with stress relief are switching off electrical equipment and taking measures against its erroneous switching on or self-switching on; hanging on the handles of switches prohibiting posters "Do not turn on - people work", "Do not turn on - work on the line", etc.; checking the absence of voltage at the disconnected electrical installation and the connection of portable grounding; fencing the workplace and hanging posters "Work here", "Stop - high voltage".

Recall that the maintenance and operation of electrical installations is carried out only by specially trained, medically certified, trained and tested electrical personnel.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Bread with invisible fibers will improve well-being 30.11.2022

Researchers at Australia's RMIT University have teamed up with technology company Microtec Engineering Group, which supplies starch processing equipment, to develop a fiber-digesting product.

This is how FiberX was born, a flavorless functional fiber that can be added to low fiber foods such as white bread, cakes, pasta, pizza and sauces.

To get the innovative invisible fiber, project leader from the RMIT Center for Food Research and Innovation Asghar Farahnaki and his team used advanced starch modification technology with approved food materials.

FiberX is considered bland and tasteless, but it is also suitable for fortifying low calorie, low glycemic foods.

"Now we can add extra fiber to foods like white bread without changing the taste or texture, which is one of the biggest problems with many commercially available fiber supplements today," Farahnaky says.

Bread with up to 20% added fiber tastes indistinguishable from any other. But the product becomes more useful and nutritious.
