Question

1. locate the emergency electrical disconnect switch(s) in the shop.

a. demonstrate the procedure for using and resetting the emergency electrical disconnect switch(s).
b. explain what should be done when someone receives an immobilizing electrical shock.

Explanation:

• A: First, identify the emergency electrical disconnect switch in the shop. To use it, typically a quick - pull or flip action is required to cut power. For resetting, wait for the electrical issue to be resolved, then follow the manufacturer's instructions which may involve pushing a button or flipping the switch back to the 'on' position.
• B: When someone receives an immobilizing electrical shock, first, ensure your own safety by not touching the victim directly if the power source is still active. Use a non - conductive object like a wooden broom handle to separate the victim from the electrical source. Then, call for emergency medical help immediately. Check for signs of life such as breathing and a pulse. If there is no breathing or pulse, start CPR if trained to do so until medical help arrives.

Answer:

• A. Identify the switch. Use by quick - pull/flip, reset following manufacturer's instructions.
• B. Separate from source with non - conductive object, call for help, check for life signs, start CPR if needed.
