This 9-inch-wide × 5-inch-tall power line hazard assessment sticker displays three printed options for equipment operations near power lines. Its red header reads “POWER LINE HAZARD ASSESSMENT” and “Power Line Safety (up to 350KV),” followed by references to OSHA 1926.1407, 1408 and 1410.
Full printed assessment wording
POWER LINE HAZARD ASSESSMENT
Power Line Safety (up to 350KV)
OSHA 1926.1407, 1408, and 1410
Before beginning equipment operations, the employer must identify the work zone and determine if any part of the equipment. load line or load, if operated up to the equipments maximum working radius in the work zone, could get closer than 20 feet to a power line. if so, the employer must meet the requirements in option 1, option 2, or option 3.
Option 1: DE-ENERGIZE AND GROUND; Confirm with the utility owner/operator that the power line has been de-energized and visibly grounded at the worksite.
Option 2: 20 FOOT CLEARANCE; Ensure that no part of the load line, load, or equipment gets closer than 20 feet of the power line by implementing the measures specified in the OSHA regulation 1926.1408(b) preventing encroachment/electrocution.
Option 3: TABLE "A" CLEARANCE; Determine the line's voltage and the minimum approach distance permitted under OSHA 1926.1408 and ANSI B30.5 table.
What is and is not included
This listing is for a physical adhesive sticker, not an official OSHA publication, downloadable PDF or completed site assessment. The design references Table A but does not include the voltage/clearance table itself. The wording above transcribes the artwork; it is not a substitute for the complete, current requirements.
The printed 20-foot assessment wording is not a universal safe operating clearance. Do not select an option or determine a work plan from this label alone. Use current applicable requirements, the equipment manufacturer’s procedures and the responsible utility or qualified site personnel to establish the controls appropriate to the operation.
Placement for equipment operators
For cab-operated cranes, consider a fixed interior panel readable from the normal operating position without obstructing windows, instruments or controls. For ground-control boom trucks, consider a visible fixed panel beside the operating controls. Choose a location where the operator can consult the message before starting work.
Follow the manufacturer’s designated decal location when available, and retain the original position when replacing a matching label. These are general recommendations, not a verified factory placement map. Apply to a clean, smooth surface without covering other warnings or identification.
The sticker does not identify line voltage, perform a hazard assessment, insulate equipment, authorize closer approach or certify compliance.
