Hahaha, so that transformer explosion near me a few weeks ago was caused by engineer stupidity. source quote:Mr Bowron said the explosion occurred on an 11,000 volt oil-insulated Long and Crawford combined fuse switch unit. So they tried to change fuses while it was still energised.

The article is claiming that fuse replacement was supposed to be OK while they were switched off (but the HV input was still switched in externally). Can't find anything to confirm or deny that, but apparently all live work on these fuse switches was banned in Wales last year (yes I know the mall thing was in Australia): http://www.wales.nhs.uk/sites3/documents/428/WWG%20HVHA%202013%20006.pdf

Can't find anything to confirm or deny that, but apparently all live work on these fuse switches was banned in Wales last year (yes I know the mall thing was in Australia): The fuses are submerged in oil with a disconnecting switch in the same tank so it's impossible to de-energize the whole thing, it's just bad design. The alternative of de-energizing upstream means switching off a lot more than just the single transformer you're working on, which will never happen unless you have a blanket ban. The problem with oil filled switchgear is that it's completely indestructible as long as you maintain the oil, one utility here I've seen has a bunch of 70 yr old switchgear with a replacement schedule of '2050, maybe'. It just doesn't rust or wear so you're kinda stuck with any unsafe features that saved money dozens of years ago.

One of my friends is a real smart guy, works as a high power electrical engineer (sub stations, transmission lines, that type of stuff). Used to tell us how serious the safety training was when they showed a home video of a kid washing his car before going to college, but turning on the wet vac in a big puddle of water and frying himself. So after all this, he decides he is going to saber a champagne bottle at a recent event and, well, let's just say he is lucky it only got the tendons on his hand and not his wrist!

That looks like a purpose-built structure though, some kind of obstacle course for excavators. Which is nifty, but not exactly comparable.

well, since we're talking excavators doing crazy poo poo - this is the most anti-OSHA I've seen. It's even worse than the 2 year old toddler playing with a full sized excavator I put in the last thread. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuWSxFWv3Fo I would not want to be either of the people in that video. Well, maybe the host.

It's Italian. There's no other country (in Europe) where that would be acceptable on prime time TV.

So yesterday I was talking to a guy who wanted to move houses because in his current place he had a housemate who studied 'something with electricity'. Apparently the guy started tinkering with the house's cabling and all that... and then he left. No clue what he had done exactly, but first they found out that the power randomly started going out, and while looking for the source of the problem, they found an additional thing: the guy had broken the residual current safety breaker in the house's main distribution board. They have no clue if he has hosed up anything else. Unrelated vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMAePMyFsRQ

So, if you're going to post a :nms: video link, how about you give some info about what we're likely to see, given that you're posting it in a thread which has seen people burned alive, electrocuted, crushed, asphyxiated and exploded. Here I am, Mr. loving Helpful. The video you posted was "Russian main battle tank T-14 Armata concept". 1 minutes 12 seconds of drawings of a tank from different angles. I'm guessing that's not the video you meant to post? Megillah Gorilla fucked around with this message at 14:47 on Feb 17, 2015 |

Since he fixed the link and STILL didn't describe it, it's a guy on a float during a carnival taking a power line straight to the head. The shock ended up killing 20 people on the float.

Captain Postal posted:well, since we're talking excavators doing crazy poo poo - this is the most anti-OSHA I've seen. This isn't as bad as it seems, really. Construction equipment has massive power and torque, but they don't need operate at great speeds to get the necessary force. While it obviously takes practice, any good operator who's able to see the model would easily be able to manipulate the arm with that level of precision. When I work with cranes, the operator regularly makes adjustments of a few inches on request.
