Electricity the most necessary part of our lives also comes with great risks. Which can put lives and properties in danger? These electrical risks and hazards occur in the form of electrical fires explosions, shocks, short circuits, failures.

So, it is important to control and manage electrical hazards effectively and efficiently. Especially in the case of industries, where these hazards will have a huge impact and may incur bigger losses.

Carelabs is a competent provider of electrical installation study, analysis, testing, inspection, and certification services.

It is difficult to identify whether a conductor has been supplied or not without an electrical tester or other devices. This harmless appearance may misguide us and this is the major cause for electrical accidents.

Safety precautions should strictly follow as per the prescribed rules while doing the inspection, testing, installation, etc. Otherwise, the possibility of electric shock or hazards could happen.

The electrical hazards will be analyzed and assessed in general safety audits but a comprehensive electrical safety audit can provide a complete review of the electrical system. This will help to identify the potential electrical hazards, faults, maintenance in the system,

The safety of an electrical installation should be ensured with proper insulation, a good earthing system, and adopting adequate protection and control systems.

The data from international organizations like National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) indicate that nearly one-fourth of all fires are caused by electrical appliances or installations.

The report says that around 8% of all fatalities are due to accidents caused by electricity. It also states that nearly 40% of the fires are initiated by electrical causes like short circuit issues, overloading problems loose electrical connections, etc.

An electrical safety audit is a systematic method to evaluate potential hazards. It is done by inquiry, inspection, testing, and verification. It is performed by experienced professionals who assist clients in reducing risk and help to ensure compliance with safety standards and regulations.

It is a very effective process for identifying the risky areas, hazards, and accidents in plants, for determining actions to minimize hazards as soon as possible.

Before finalizing the electrical safety audit report, the audit team should do a presentation/discussion as feedback to the operating methods /management in personnel of the area/installation.

This provides inputs to the draft report that supported the discussions and comments received during the presentation.
