Electrical Safety Audits

Electricity is boon for mankind it makes human life very easy & comfortable but it can turn out to be very unsafe if circuits are not properly protected. Electricity constitutes one of the major sources of ignition involving fire accidents and explosives in the industry and buildings, which carries hazardous operations and materials.

As per the statistics available, 30% of the total accidents in industry caused due to electrical problems. The damages due to electrical hazards vary from minor electrical shock, equipment loss to fatal accidents which causes huge loss to both plant and human beings.

ESA is an important tool for identifying deterioration of standards, areas of risks or vulnerability, hazards and potential accidents in plants for determining necessary action to / minimize hazards and for ensuring that the whole safety effort is effective & meaningful. Electrical safety audits are conducted by our knowledgeable, experienced professionals who will assist in reducing personnel risk and helping to ensure compliance with applicable standards and statutory rules and regulations.
