Topics 3 and 5: Extra Low Voltage and Low Voltage Hazards and
Risks

Short answer questions (1 mark per written part or as shown)

Extra low voltage is defined as not more than 50Vac or 120Vdc. Low voltage is defined as

being between 50Vac and 1000Vac or between 120Vdc and 1500Vdc.

Be very careful of these names which could be misleading to a person who has not had

training in the Electrotechnology field. Low voltage is lethal. Extra low voltage could also be

lethal in the right environment such as high humidity, dampness, salt water, body salts from

perspiration etc. This is a very important area for safety risk management, and you must do

all the reading and show a high understanding of the dangers and hazards when working with

electrical circuits.

Read the following code of practice as your life and that of others around you is not

worth taking risks with electricity. Just copy and paste in GOOGLE.

Documents/low_voltage_electrical_work_code_of_practice_0964pdf

Watch the following video from YouTube

http://wwwyoutubecom/watch?v=HaSeu7-YG1M: the girl with hairdryer and

electrical worker…’Electrical Accident ‘It’s All About The Hair’

This video is about Low Voltage electrical hazard and lockout/tag out procedures.

Note that the consequences in Australia would be more severe due to the voltage and

frequency of our supply compared to the USA.

For questions 14 and 15 you must read the document from Safe Work Australia, ’Managing

Electrical Risks in the Workplace’ and use the information you learn from that document to

best answer them.

14 From Section 51 of the above document, state the safe work procedure which

must be done when working on all electrical equipment or installations. Also,

state whether the electrical contractor in the video appeared to perform this

procedure. (3 marks)
