Written Practice PDF Template?

[TheOtherMike]

I can’t imagine I am the only one running into this while performing electrical testing in various industrial facilities:


The customer does not have a written practice for electrical safety.
They are requesting one. Keep in mind I am an electrician not a lawyer.


1. Is there simply a PDF somewhere that would be an up-to-date template that I could provide them?
(Including the latest 70E and NEC changes)


2. Are there legal repercussions in doing this – e.g. one of their employees gets hurt now I am giving a deposition for providing this template.


Best regards to all.

The facility is required to have written ESWP's in place that comply with OSHA rules, 70E is simply a guide to help them develop those procedures. They are also required to have procedures in place for contractors working on their property.

Your company should also have ESWP's that you are required to follow.

I would not provide to them, that is on them and you could hold some liability. There are companies that specialize in ESWP development for facilities like this, I used to do that for a living.
