NOTES
1. All inspections to be performed by the contractors appointed designated competent person(s). A competent
person is one who is proactive and capable of identifying predictable hazards in the work environment which are
hazardous to employees and who has the authorization to take prompt corrective measures to eliminate them.

2. The formal monthly inspection does not relieve the tool user of his duty and responsibility of visually checking the
equipment each day and to report defects to supervision for immediate corrective action.

3. All inspections require the completion of the appropriate contractors inspection register. The register must identify
the equipment by serial number, conditions noted during the inspection, corrective action, date of inspection and
signature of the competent person. An essential part of the electrical inspection is a continuity test of the grounding
conductor, where applicable.
