Well, this has been up before, and its back again. There are some 'preventive maintenance' that is being done on a mcc bucket for a fan. Theres no changing of the breaker, just some amp readings, voltage testing. when there is 'meggering done' the breaker is off, and it has a 'sheild' over the line side so the hot side is not exposed.
there are gloves used and safety glasses used when the amp readings and voltage testing is done, its 480 gear. I say 'technically' they have to have the 'arc flash' hood on, but maybe not the paints since its only their upper part thats expose. Others claim its not neccessary to have that, just the gloves, glasses, long sleeve cotton shirt.
I know most dont want that 'hood darth vader' suit on but if i read the NFPA 70e correctly then its suppose to be on. opinions please.
