NC State’s goal is to minimize exposure to shock and arc flash hazards during the installation, repair, maintenance, and operation of electrical equipment, components, and systems.

Electrical power sources shall be deenergized, verified, and locked out prior to working on electrical equipment except when deenergization creates a greater hazard and a properly executed and approved Energized Electrical Work Permit (EWP) has been completed.
