Description

The purpose of this meeting is to communicate, aid implementation, enhance knowledge of electrical safety requirements, and establish standards in electrical safety. This meeting establishes standards for DOE and other national organizations. It is focused on the operational needs of DOE and its contractors. The meeting involves a few speakers (per a rough schedule) and breakout specialty groups based on topics such as LOTO, arc flash calculations, etc., required of all DOE facilities.   Implementation of the information provided in this meeting is used routinely throughout DOE and at all contractor facilities.
