6 information meetings on safety near electrical works took place.
The agents of the Road Technical Service of the Department of Lot are required in their activity to sometimes find themselves faced with situations of imminent danger, linked to the electricity distribution network. For example, a high voltage cable may be lying on the ground across the road. How to react to this type of situation? What actions should be taken, and which should be avoided?
In order to prevent any accidents near our electrical works, all Lot STR agents were invited by Enedis to 6 information meetings on safety near electrical works. These meetings were led by the Enedis prevention department, represented by Frédéric Rouziès and Romain Bousquié. They covered the following topics:
– The French electricity system, Enedis’ area of intervention in electricity distribution and its public service missions.
– The elements of the electrical network: how to recognize high and low voltage lines, source stations, manual and automatic switches, electricity distribution stations and electrical boxes on the road.
– Electrical risk and its consequences on the human body: know the concept of step voltage and how to get out of a dangerous situation.
– Working near our structures and the right actions and decisions to apply.
Enedis thanks the entire Lot STR and its management for making electrical risks known to their agents, who often have to work near electrical works.
