SafetyQuestion 468 of 521
To protect other workers from an area where justified energized work is being performed, the qualified person should:

b.Use barricades, warning signs, and an attendant if needed to keep unqualified persons out of the boundaries
c.Turn off the room lights to signal danger
d.Simply work faster to reduce exposure time
Explanation
Energized work areas must be protected with barricades, signs, and an attendant when needed so unqualified persons stay outside the approach boundaries. Doing nothing exposes others, turning off lights creates a new hazard, and working fast does not control access to the hazard zone.
