ASTM Task Force Members sought for Proposed Crane – Power Line Contact Standard

 

ASTM Task Force Members sought for Proposed Crane – Power Line Contact Standard

A proposed ASTM standard could help improve workplace safety by describing proximity alarm systems that can be used to prevent cranes, utility trucks and other equipment from encroaching inside OSHA minimum approach distances and coming in contact with high voltage power lines.
 
ASTM is seeking individuals to join the task force developing the standard. (
WK49653)

“In the construction industry alone, the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration estimated that there are 164,000 establishments using about 96,000 cranes that could fall under the scope of this standard,” says ASTM member Lance Burney, president of Sigalarm.

Those interested in joining the task force for WK49653, Specification for High Voltage Proximity Alarm for Voltages Exceeding 600 Volts AC, should contact:

Lance Burney, Sigalarm,
lance@sigalarminc.com, 407-321-0722
Kevin Shanahan, ASTM,
