Qualified person. Arc flash. LOTO. Every job. Every time. All documented — or not.
Electrical contractors operate under the most technically demanding documentation requirements in the trades. OSHA 1910.147, NFPA 70E, and FMCSA create overlapping obligations that must be documented at the employer level — not assumed from licensing. A single undocumented gap is a citation. In litigation, it is evidence of willful negligence.
Where You Are Exposed
The Gaps That Become Lawsuits
Qualified-person designation must be documented by the employer under OSHA 1910.147 and NFPA 70E. An electrician's license does not satisfy the employer's documentation obligation. Missing designation records mean the employer owns every electrical incident.
Arc flash hazard analysis and incident energy calculations must be documented and communicated to workers before energized work begins. No written analysis means no defensible position when a worker is burned.
Lockout/tagout procedures must be written, equipment-specific, and documented as trained. A generic LOTO program that is not equipment-specific fails the standard.
Energized electrical work permits are required under NFPA 70E when work cannot be performed de-energized. Missing permit records are evidence of a systematic safety failure.
Service vehicles and drivers are subject to FMCSA driver qualification requirements. Fleet documentation failures compound electrical incident liability.
How Precision Command Closes It
The Command System Deployed
The P.A.C.E. Audit maps every electrical exposure category to its governing standard and identifies every documentation gap. We deploy a Command System that installs written qualified-person designation records, equipment-specific LOTO procedures, arc flash hazard analysis documentation, energized work permit systems, and complete driver qualification files — all maintained in a single administrative architecture that survives an OSHA inspection or a plaintiff deposition.
What the P.A.C.E. Audit Looks At
Five Surgical Strikes on Your Exposure
