What this quiz covers This quiz is about common electrocution hazards on jobsites: damaged cords, temporary power, wet conditions, overhead lines, improper grounding, and unsafe work near energized parts. It tests whether you can recognize exposure before contact happens. On the job A worker can be seriously injured without opening a panel at all. A wet floor, a damaged extension cord, a metal ladder near overhead lines, or missing GFCI protection can create a fatal path through the body in seconds. How to think about it Think in terms of energy source, contact path, and protective... Show more
