Insulation resists electrical current, protecting the wiring and preventing electrical shocks to individuals who may come into contact with the wires.

Earthing provides a path for excess charge to safely enter the ground, thus protecting against electrical surges that can lead to equipment damage or electric shock.

A fuse has a metal wire that melts when the current exceeds a certain level, breaking the circuit and preventing overheating and fires.

These warn of electrical hazards and advise on proper procedures, helping to prevent accidents through increased awareness and caution.

Safety training educates individuals about hazards and proper handling of electrical equipment, minimizing the risk of accidents and injury.

An RCD is similar to a GFCI and disconnects the circuit when it detects a small stray voltage on the metal enclosures of electrical equipment, preventing electric shock.

A GFCI cuts off electricity when it detects an imbalance between the incoming and outgoing current. This helps to prevent electric shocks.

Lockout-Tagout procedures ensure that electrical equipment is properly shut down and inoperable during maintenance, protecting workers from unexpected energization.

Using flame-retardant materials in electrical components decreases the risk of fire by preventing ignition or slowing down the spread of fire.

PPE such as insulated gloves and protective clothing prevents direct contact with electricity, reducing the risk of electrical burns and shocks.

A circuit breaker automatically stops the flow of electricity when it detects an overload or short circuit, preventing fires and equipment damage.
