In ordinary companies and residences\, the voltage of the electricity and the available electrical current is powerful enough t o cause death by electrocution. Even replacing a light bulb without discon necting the lamp is dangerous because coming into contact with the "hot\," "energized\," or "live" section of the socket can be fatal.\n\nTherefore IEEE PES NEDUET arranged the seminar to enlighten this topic with Mr. Ghaz anfar\, who is a BE and ME in electrical engineering and an MBA graduate a s well. By using his expertise and prior knowledge he makes us abide by fo llowing main rules:\n\n- Working with exposed conductors carrying 50 volts or more is not recommended.\n- Ensure that all electrical equipment is pr operly connected\, grounded\, and functional.\n- Extension cables should n ot be utilized as permanent wiring and should be discarded after a single activity or event.\n- Surge suppressors with built-in circuit breakers may be used for a long time and come in chord lengths of three\, six\, and fi fteen feet.\n- Space heaters\, portable air conditioners\, and other high- amperage devices must be connected directly to permanent wall sockets.\n\n Unless you are explicitly certified and permitted\, do not enter\, utilize \, or change any building's electrical service\, including circuit breaker panels.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Byco\n\nSpeaker(s): Mr. Ghazanfar Abbas Rizvi \, \n\nAgenda: \nElectrical Engineering is a field that entails you to be vigilant. You need to have a comprehensive understanding of the safety mea surements while working in labs and outdoor fieldwork. Often\, students ar e unaware of these safety precautions. For this very reason\, IEEE PES NED UET arranged a workshop on Electrical safeties.\n\nKarachi\, Sindh\, Pakis tan\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/314031 LOCATION:Karachi\, Sindh\, Pakistan\, Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.o rg/m/314031 ORGANIZER:hunainraza@ieee.org SEQUENCE:1 SUMMARY:Electrical Drawings and safety Practices URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/314031 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p>The basic idea of the discussion was that electrical safe practices are important\, but they are mostly neglected du e to lack of knowledge and enlightenment.
