DOE-HDBK-1092-2004
Sleeves should be stored flat with inserts rolled up lengthwise, or placed in a tube shaped bag.
Nothing should be placed on top of sleeves or stored near vehicle heaters.
7.4.14 PLACING OF INSULATING GOODS ON CONDUCTORS
When workers are about to begin work that requires the use of rubber goods, they should climb
or raise the bucket to a position just below the first line of conductors. When climbing they
should then determine their working position and what lines and other conductors should be
covered. They should then request the required rubber goods. Before proceeding further, the
workers shall put on the rubber gloves and leather protectors and make certain that they are in
good order. Rubber goods shall be raised in a secure manner.
As the workers ascend to their working position, they shall cover all conductors which provide a
hazard. This should be done from below whenever possible. At no time shall workers pass
through energized equipment before it is covered with rubber goods (line guards). All
conductors and grounds adjacent to working space shall be considered, including those near
any possible change of position that may be necessary. When line hose is applied to vertical or
sagging wires, it should be fastened to the line to prevent its slipping from position. When
blankets are used for covering items such as dead ends, potheads, secondary racks, and
transformers, they should be secured by wooden or plastic clamp pins or tie thongs. After the
protective equipment has been placed, care should be taken to prevent damage to the rubber
from tie wires, spurs, or other objects.
7.4.15 REMOVING INSULATING GOODS FROM CONDUCTORS
When the job is completed, the protectors should be removed in the reverse order of
installation. Remote conductors are removed first and the wires nearest the workers last. After
being detached, the equipment should immediately be lowered to the ground.
7.4.16 CLEANING AND INSPECTING
After the rubber goods have been lowered to the ground, they should be cleaned and visually
inspected before being placed in the carrier compartments of the truck.
7.5
PROTECTIVE GROUNDING OF LINES AND EQUIPMENT
Grounding is the most effective way of protecting electrical workers from electric shock. That is
why it is important to ensure that all deenergized lines and equipment are grounded.
7.5.1
PURPOSE
Blankets should be rolled up and placed in canisters or protective canvas holders. Do not fold,
hold together with tape, pile materials on top of, or store blankets near vehicle heaters.
This section provides information concerning protection for workers repairing, servicing, or
working on high-voltage power lines.
