I've been tasked with developing a procedure to work on or near motor caps. I know most caps are designed to discharge over time, but I think the electrcial folks need to check the caps to make sure they are completely discharge before any work on or near the caps. To that end, does any one have any SOP's they would be willing to share. Looking for input on what PPE should be worn while checking the caps for stored energy and how to properly discharge them if needed. I'm leaning toward using the same PPE used to perform the lockout to check for any stored energy, if any stored energy is found keep the PPE on and use a ground stick to dissapate the charge.
Any suggestions would be grealy appreciated. :?
