Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Electrical Safety in HAZMAT Environments.

This is an interactive online training course designed to help facilities comply with OSHA’s HAZWOPER regulation (29 CFR 1910.120). It teaches employees about the hazards of uncontrolled energy in hazardous materials environments and how to reduce or eliminate those hazards through engineering controls and safe work practices.
  This course is designed for workers who remove hazardous waste, or are exposed or potentially exposed to any kind of hazardous substance or health hazard while also working in an environment that adds an element of uncontrolled energy. This includes electricians, maintenance workers, and any employees at HAZMAT facilities where electrical hazards are present.
  The National Electric Code (NEC) is a set of standards for the safe installation and use of electrical equipment. In HAZMAT environments, the NEC provides specific classifications for areas that contain ignitable materials. Understanding these classifications helps workers and facilities ensure that electrical equipment used in hazardous areas meets the appropriate safety standards to prevent ignition.
The course covers the different types of hazards associated with electricity, why electricity and hazardous materials should not mix, different types of engineering controls and work practices used to mitigate electrical hazards, and how the National Electric Code (NEC) categorizes HAZMAT environments that contain ignitable materials.
Electrical energy sources such as sparks, arcs, and heat from electrical equipment can act as ignition sources for flammable gases, vapors, dusts, and other hazardous materials. In HAZMAT environments, uncontrolled electrical energy can trigger fires, explosions, or toxic releases, making it critical that workers understand and implement proper controls.
