Electrocution Hazard

Maintain a clearance of at least 10 ft (3m) between any part of
the machine and its occupants, their tools, and their equipment
from any electrical line or apparatus carrying up to 50,000 volts.
One foot (0.3m) additional clearance is required for every addi-
tional 30,000 volts or less.

The minimum safe approach distance may be reduced if insulat-
ing barriers are installed to prevent contact, and if the barriers
are rated for the voltage of the line being guarded. These barri-
ers shall not be part of (or attached to) the machine. The mini-
mum safe approach distance shall be reduced to a distance
within the designed working dimensions of the insulating bar-
rier. This determination shall be made by a qualified person in
accordance with employer, local, or governmental requirements
for work practices near energized equipment.
