【Sea and Rivers: Strange Safety Hazards, Season 4】Multifunctional distribution boxes
Thread Content
What potential dangers are there in this? Let’s all talk about it
Judging from the picture, the person doing the task is in a dangerous location. Although its height, when judged by reference to the surrounding components, may not reach 2 meters, it is still quite close to that value; such a height can certainly lead to falls and severe injuries ； Furthermore, the platform where the workers stand serves as an umbrella to protect the on-site temporary power distribution switch box; it is not a working platform, and its stability is unreliable, which further increases the risk of accidental falls ； The site was separated using color-coated steel plates; it appeared to be a site for installation or maintenance work. However, apart from a warning on the distribution box about the risk of electric shock, there were no other signs or warnings. It reflects shortcomings in on-site management; this is just a starting point, let’s continue the discussion
The collision between ideals and reality: how many people’s hard work goes into an ideal
There are issues regarding people's awareness of safety and responsibilities; safety is an ongoing process.
Safety work involves continuous correction, improvement, enhancement, and prevention
It’s a good summary; this kind of situation is very common on site
If there are risks in doing this, then what is the correct way to do it?
Thanks for the compliment! How to improve this common phenomenon is something that dedicated safety management personnel need to work hard to find better approaches and methods, to identify breakthrough points, and to enhance management standards and achieve effective results. But this is also a long-term and arduous task
From this diagram, it can be seen that there is a lack of proper management in terms of preparation before construction and inspections before starting work
The load-bearing capacity of the canopy over the distribution box is insufficient, posing a risk of collapse； The workers do not have safe access routes for going up and down, proper work platforms, or safety belts ； In the event of power outage operations, it is also necessary to hang a sign stating “Personnel are working; do not close the switch”, and assign a supervisor.....
The lack of appropriate working facilities is the true essence of this violation
