Circuit protection devices Fuses, circuit breakers and ground-fault circuit interrupters
Current Flow of electrons
Electrical Arcs Where short circuit occurs; may cause fires
Electrical burns Electrical current flowing through tissue or bones
Electrical Shock Sensation and muscular spasm cause when electric current passes
through the body
Extremely high arcs Damage equipment dispersing metal fragments
Factors affecting shock Amount of current, path of current, amount of body resistance,
length of time current flows in body
Factors of electrical accidents 1. Unsafe equipment 2. Unsafe environment 3.unsafe work
practices
Ground-fault circuit interrupters
