1926.964(c)(5) Adverse Weather Conditions

OSHA 1926 Construction > V Electric Power Transmission and Distribution > 1926.964 Overhead Lines and Live-Line Barehand Work > 1926.964(c) Live-Line Barehand Work > 1926.964(c)(5) Adverse Weather Conditions
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER
The employer shall ensure that employees do not perform work when adverse weather conditions would make the work hazardous even after the employer implements the work practices required by this subpart. Additionally, employees may not perform work when winds reduce the phase-to-phase or phase-to-ground clearances at the work location below the minimum approach distances specified in paragraph (c)(13) of this section, unless insulating guards cover the grounded objects and other lines and equipment.

Note to paragraph (c)(5): Thunderstorms in the vicinity, high winds, snow storms, and ice storms are examples of adverse weather conditions that make live-line barehand work too hazardous to perform safely even after the employer implements the work practices required by this subpart.
