    The document is a tool box talk on electrical safety that provides guidance for working with electrical systems and equipment. It stresses the importance of testing for energy isolation before touching electrical works through lock-out/tag-out procedures. Workers should understand the equipment and hazards involved, use proper protective equipment, develop a work plan, and never assume a system is de-energized without testing. Fifteen safety requirements are also outlined such as risk assessment, authorized access only, appropriate cables and fuses, periodic inspection of tools, and using approved PPE.
