Text For Citation: 01 Item/Group: 002C Hazard:
29 CFR 1926.405(g)(2)(iv): Flexible cords were not connected to devices and fittings so that strain relief is provided to prevent pull from being directly transmitted to joints or terminal screws: The employer is failing to protect employees from electric shock hazards while utilizing electric extension cords during construction activities on site. Workers were observed utilizing a cord that had no strain relief device to keep the cord from separating from the plug. This was most recently documented at the corner of 204th St. and Maple St., Elkhorn, Nebraska on or about June 21th, 2017 when the employees were using an extension cord on site that had been pulled away from the plug exposing the inner wiring which could shock anyone utilizing the cord.
