Question regarding an OSHA standard.

[Gordito]

I was recently asked to find an OSHA standard operating procedure for Circuit breakers rated greater than 12 amps. I have read subpart S of the 29 CFR and at this time have not come across it. Can anyone tell me where this procedure is located? Thank you.

I haven't seen anything in a OSHA standard about what you are inquiring about. What was the rumor?

What exactly do you mean by "standard operating procedure"? Since OSHA is safety related, you might look to NFPA 70E Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace. Here's a snippet from the product detail page on NFPA's website...

Workplace safety in the United States is evolving due to better awareness and implementation of NFPA 70E: Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace?. Yet hundreds of deaths and thousands of disabling injuries still occur each year due to shock, electrocution, arc flash, and arc blast -- and most could be prevented through NFPA 70E compliance. The 2012 NFPA 70E responds to the challenges, making it easier to ensure an electrically safe working area and comply with OSHA 1910 Subpart S and OSHA 1926 Subpart K.
