As an Employer it is YOUR responsibility to ensure:

Extension cables and other flexible leads which are particularly prone to damage to plugs and sockets and to their connections are visually checked, maintained and where necessary replaced before using portable equipment. The ends of flexible cables should always have the outer sheath of the cable firmly clamped to stop the wires (particularly the earth) pulling out of the terminals

Use the correct cable connectors or couplers to join lengths of cables together and do not allow taped joints.
Electrical installations are installed and maintained by a competent person and checked regularly
Socket Outlets are not overloaded by the use of adaptors
Electrically powered equipment provided is suitable for use
Fixed electrical equipment should have a clearly identified switch to cut off power in an emergency
that portable equipment labelled as being double insulated has had the live and neutral connected properly to the plug by a competent person unless the plug is of a moulded type

If there is potential for an explosive atmosphere then specialist electrical equipment is required and further information is available in the ATEX section of our website.
