    Simulator Safety Errors

    Personal Injury Errors


    Personal Injury Errors occur when the activity being performed causes the trouble-shooter or
    their tools to contact live equipment and could cause personal injury or equipment damage.

    These errors will occur if the users attempt to:

    AETI Training Manual Page 14


    Module 3: Safety Tips in Electrical System Troubleshooting

    • Take an ohmmeter reading on a live terminal,


    • Energize a circuit with an ohmmeter connected to terminal that will become live,
    • Connect or disconnect a wire on a live terminal,
    • Connect or disconnect live wires using a wire connector,
    • Replace a component which has one or more live terminals, or perform an inspection on a
    component which has one or more live terminals

    Live Circuit Errors


    Live Circuit Errors occur when actions other than approved testing are performed on a live
    circuit, and have a high risk of electrical contact causing personal injury or equipment damage.

    To avoid these errors, users should ensure the circuit is de-energized before they attempt to:

    • Take an ohmmeter reading,


    • Connect or disconnect a wire,
    • Connect or disconnect wires connected by a wire connector,
    • Replace a component,
    • Perform an inspection on a component, or
    • Remove or replace a fuse.

    Safe Work Practice Errors


    Safe Work Practice Errors occur when the action performed has broken lockout / tagout
    principles or other safe work practices.

    To avoid these errors, users should ensure the circuit is locked out and verified dead before
    attempting to:

    Take an ohmmeter reading,


    Connect or disconnect a wire,
    Connect or disconnect wires connected by a wire connector,
    Replace a component, or
    Perform an inspection on a component
