Electrical engineering safety.
Step 1: Always wear protective gear such as gloves, goggles, and ear protection while working with electrical equipment.
Step 2: Keep the work area clean and uncluttered to avoid any tripping hazards and to make sure all equipment is properly placed.
Step 3: Make sure all equipment is properly grounded before using it to avoid electrocution.
Step 4: Use only properly rated and tested equipment to ensure that it is safe to use and that it won't short circuit.
Step 5: Before starting work, turn off all electrical equipment that is not needed.
Step 6: Never touch live electrical parts, and always assume that all wires are live unless you are certain they are not.
Step 7: Use voltage detectors to test whether equipment is safe to touch, even if it is not energized.
Step 8: Always use ladders or scaffolds that are properly rated for electrical work.
Step 9: Make sure that all extension cords are properly grounded and are rated for the electrical load that they will be carrying.
Step 10: In case of an electrical fire, use an appropriate extinguisher such as a CO2 extinguisher, or turn off the main power switch and call for help immediately.
