Answer:

Electrician's PPE

PPEs are clothing and equipment that are designed to protect a person or minimize the exposure to hazards or harm that may be present in the person's workplace environment.

There are different kinds of PPEs for different kinds of work/profession and electricians have their own type of PPE made for their work. Here are the parts:

  • Safety glasses - protects eyes from sparks
  • Hard hats - protects head from damage
  • Safety shoes - prevents slipping and damage to feet
  • Face shields - protects from sparks
  • Insulating (rubber) gloves with leather protectors - prevents electrocution and gives protection from sharp objects
  • Insulating sleeves - prevents electrocution
  • Flame-resistant clothing - prevents cloth and body from being burnt in case of fire

However, their protective equipment are not always the same. They add and change some of them depending on the hazards assessed.

  • Fall protection equipment like harness maybe used if they need to work in high places.
  • Respirators if there's harmful substance that can be inhaled while working.
  • Chemical resistant gloves and clothing if working with harmful chemicals.
