N2  - In this final standard, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) establishes "Design Safety Standards for Electrical Systems." This standard revises Subpart S of 29 CFR Part 1910 and is intended to simplify and update the former standard. OSHA has determined that electrical hazards in the workplace pose a significant risk of injury or death to employees, and that these regulations which draw heavily on the experience of the National Electrical Code are reasonably necessary to provide protection from these hazards. The final rule places relevant requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC) into the text of the regulations, making it unnecessary for employers to refer to the NEC to determine their obligations and unnecessary for OSHA to continue to incorporate the NEC by reference. Additionally, the final rule clarifies certain provisions which were misunderstood by certain interested parties.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
