SAFETY
2.4.
MAINTENANCE
Check the good state, insulation and connection of all the equipment and electrical accessories: plugs and flexible supply cables, cables (NF A 32-510), conduits, connectors, extension cables (NF A 85-610 and CENELEC HD
433), sockets on the power source, ground and electrode-holder clamps (NF A 85-600).
These connections and mobile accessories are marked according to standards, if consistent with the safety rules.
They can either be controlled by you or by accredited firms.
- Maintenance and repair works of conduits and liners have to be properly carried out (Section VI, Art. 47).
-Repair or replace all defective accessories
-Check periodically that the electrical connections are tightened and do not heat.
2.5.
RISKS OF FIRE AND EXPLOSION
Welding can occur risks of fire or explosion. You have to pay attention to fire safety regulation
- Remove flammable or explosive materials from welding area.
- Always have sufficient fire fighting equipment
- Fire can break out from sparks even several hours after the welding work has been finished.

INDIVIDUAL PROTECTION
3.1.
RISK OF EXTERNAL INJURIES
3.1.1.
THE WHOLE BODY
Arc rays produce very bright ultra violet and infra red light. They will damage yours eyes and burn your skin if you are not properly protected
-The welder is dressed and protected according to the constraints his works impose him.
-Insulate yourself from the workpiece and the ground. Make sure that no metal piece, especially those connected to the network, can come into contact with the operator.
-The welder must always wear an individual insulating protection (decree of 14/12/1988, article 3-3).
Protective clothing : gloves, aprons, safety shoes offer the additional advantage to protect the operator against burns caused by hot pieces, spatters ...
Check the good state of these equipment and replace them before you are not protected any more.
