Dielectric PPE, a priority on electrical worksites
Working on an electrical network, installing electricity in a building or handling live cables and equipment are all potential risks on a worksite. Among them: a possible electrocution, sparks or an electric arc can have serious consequences (burns, blindness, fainting), even fatal for operators.
To create a safe working environment, drastic measures must be respected. Starting with the provision of appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): an imperative to guarantee personal safety and an obligation for employers.
The specific nature of dielectric protective equipment
Dielectric products are made from insulating, non-flammable materials such as rubber, composite or resin. They are therefore unable to conduct electric current.
The yellow clothes worn by operators in public places are often among the best known, but there are also gloves, helmets with visors and dielectric boots that guarantee effective protection against electric arcs and shocks, thereby limiting the risk of accidents in the workplace.
To recognise dielectric PPE, look for a pictogram consisting of two overlapping triangles.
The choice of this equipment must also take into account :
- the nature of the work carried out,
- standards and directives,
- and voltage levels on the site.
In the Delta Plus PPE range: dielectric harnesses
Some network maintenance projects involve electrical work at height. In such cases, the technician is exposed to a double risk: falling and electric shock.
To meet the needs of these workers, we have extended our range of fall arrest equipment and developed dielectric harnesses and lanyards, enabling vertical or horizontal movement along a lifeline.
Made from plastic and polyester, this protective equipment also includes carabiners and hooks made from insulating material. They are designed to ensure the safety of workers required to work on pylons or roofs.
