Machines | Electrical Safety: Crane Truck Contact

videos | at work | information | view | construction

1. good video
2. Kool just learned something!
3. What is there to dislike about this video? Very informative...
4. This is false. You can just walk away normally, the ground has one voltage potential, as long as you are not in contact with anything else of a different potential such as the crane or power line.
5. interesting, the ground is grounded electrically, I'm an electrician and electricity still shows me surpises.
6. 0:47 can't he see those wires and the danger?
7. nice video to information
8. The voltage difference can be greater the more distance between your feet or any part of you touching the ground.You keep your shoes touching, minimizing voltage potential, as you shuffle away from the electrical source. Hopping on one foot would be ideal.   But if you fall, your body can become a nice conductor of ground currents.
9. HA are you ok that not the first thing to be asked /
10. Oh man... a training video...thought I was gonna see some death and destruction
11. poor video... bad operator and even worse foreman... if the ground was energised he'd already be down. most good work boots will provided insulation against virtually everything except a direct strike or standing in water. video says the ground is energised but the crane is no longer in contact with the power line. truck is a battery? count to 10 and there'd be no threat left coz nothing dissipates electricity like ground... what they don't say is the situation if the line separated and came down (but they show the constant contact shuffle), different surfaces like concrete, bitumen, grass, dirt... and increased risk with moisture or wet surfaces... so basically all this video says is don't use a crane near power lines and if you do then freeze and hope someone calls the power company so you can move again... please tell people where to correct things in the vid, like refuse to operate the crane in the first place until you have a spotter, and how to know if ground is possibly live... is the crane still in contact or lines down?... and if so, no, it's not safe to attempt to save your friend no matter how you feel, until help arrives and power cut.
12. nice
13. They just told us at a safety responders training to hop not shuffle lol which is it.
14. Buy better shoes lol
15. muy buen video,,,, no sabia eso..gracias
16. GOOD
17. Interesante y educativo vídeo. Es un gran aporte a la humanidad.
18. THOSE BEARDS <3 Also did they actually move a crane against a powerline so they could film this??...
19. Interesting
20. You could just turn those powerline off first
