Electrical Safety in the High Voltage Laboratory
Abstract
In the process of reevaluating the thoroughness and long-term retention of existing electrical safety training programs at Lawrence Livermore National Lab, a new, intensive training program has been developed. Although it encompasses the electrical safety of utility power it is primarily designed to include the specialized safety issues present in the high energy or pulsed power laboratory. The unique approach is to expose the technical person likely to work in such a hazardous location to a dynamic, thorough, and motivating presentation designed to leave a long lasting appreciation for the issue of laboratory safety. It is believed that this approach is critical to establish and maintain the sense of long-term safety awareness in an individual that is necessary to assure a continually safe work environment. The newly developed electrical safety awareness course uses a variety of multi-media techniques to accomplish the above goals. This paper will present the design and content of the course as well as the results from the initial presentations.
