Test your electrical safety knowledge! ⚡️
Per NFPA 70E, what are the only 4 justifications for working on energized equipment? Drop 'em in the comments if you know 'em!
(P.S. - Just because you CAN work on it energized doesn't mean you SHOULD!)

Off the top of my head I know two: (1) de-energizing introduces increased risk, (2) circuit parts operate at less than 50v
I should know all of them by heart since I’m working on updating our electrical safety plan 😂

Isn’t one something about having to keep lifesaving equipment running (like at a hospital)? Can’t remember the last one!
