DESCRIPTION:
This video shows how to flip a breaker the correct way to prevent getting injured in the unlikely scenario of the breaker box exploding. First, put on a pair of safety glasses then find the breaker and turn to the side of it, then put one of your hands in your pocket. This will prevent an electrical current from going through your arm and into your heart and out the other arm killing you. The next step is to hold your breath so that if an explosion occurs you wouldn’t breathe in toxic metal vapor, instead, you would exhale and walk to safety. After doing all those things proceed to turn your head away from the breaker then flip the switch .

Steve doesn’t mention this, but loose connections could cause an arc flash. Ask what could cause an arc flash. Mention other information you know and apply it to your workplace with the electrical equipment you use.

TIPS ON HOW TO MAXIMIZE THIS VIDEO:
It’s almost always best to set up and debrief a video. This means before you show the video; give them something to look for, write down, remember, or list out from the video. Basically, you’re giving your crew something to look for to their raise curiosity such as, “About halfway through this video, listen carefully for what Steve says about what happened as a result of not paying attention to where you’re pushing the mobile stairs.” This is what I mean by set up the video. Now they are paying more attention! And you are guaranteeing participating when you debrief (or discuss) the video after showing it because your people already know they are looking for something or they were supposed to write something down (or remember one thing from the video). Be yourself. Have fun with it. Vary your methods each time. See what works best with your audience.
