Which article addresses Work Involving Electrical Hazards?

• A. Article 120
• B. Article 130
• C. Article 245
• D. Article 250

Answer: (B)

The idea being tested is where the safety requirements for working around electrical hazards are found. In the standard, the article dedicated to Work Involving Electrical Hazards lays out the exact steps for planning and performing work around energized equipment: determining when de-energizing is required, applying lockout/tagout, choosing and using the right PPE and tools, and conducting hazard analyses and arc-flash risk assessments to guide safe practices. This is the best choice because it directly addresses how to manage and protect workers when electrical hazards are present. Other articles cover related electrical safety topics like grounding and bonding or overcurrent protection, which are important but do not provide the specific guidance for performing work around electrical hazards.
