FACTS

1. Not all electrical hazards are created equal. Although each use of electricity creates a potential exposure to a hazard, the dangers vary.
2. Electricity can be either “static” or “dynamic.” Dynamic Electricity is the uniform motion of electrons through a conductor (this is known as electric current). Conductors are materials that allow the movement of electricity through it. Most metals are conductors. The human body is also a conductor.
3. Static Electricity is accumulation of charge on surfaces as a result of contact and friction with another surface. This contact/friction causes an accumulation of electrons on one surface, and a deficiency […]
