Power Line Clearance Requirements Decal | OSHA Table A

EC-011

Keep power-line planning information visible on cranes, boom trucks, and related equipment with this Power Line Clearance Requirements decal. The 7 × 5-inch chart summarizes the printed planning thresholds, options, and Table A reference associated with OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1407, 1926.1408, and 1926.1409.

This decal is a supplemental visual reference. It does not replace the complete current regulations, site assessment, voltage determination, employer procedures, encroachment-prevention measures, training, or a qualified person’s determination.

Information Printed on the Decal

The decal states that 20 feet of clearance is used for power lines up to 350 kV and 50 feet for power lines over 350 kV when determining whether any part of the equipment, load line, or load could enter the prohibited zone while operating up to the crane’s maximum working radius.

When the equipment could enter that zone, the printed summary identifies these paths:

  • Have the line verified as de-energized and visibly grounded by the utility owner.
  • Maintain clearance from the prohibited zone with additional encroachment-prevention measures as defined in 1926.1407, 1926.1408, and 1926.1409.
  • Determine the line voltage and the minimum approach distance permitted under Table A, together with the required additional encroachment-prevention measures.

The 20- and 50-foot figures are planning thresholds shown on the decal. They should not be confused with the voltage-specific minimum clearance distances in Table A.

Installation Guidance

Install the decal on a clean, dry, smooth surface where it can be read without covering equipment controls, required manufacturer labels, inspection information, or damage. Remove dust, grease, moisture, adhesive residue, and loose material before application, then press firmly across the full decal.

Inspect the decal during routine equipment inspections and replace it if it becomes loose, damaged, faded, outdated, or illegible.

Important Regulatory Information

Review the complete current requirements before planning or performing work near power lines. See OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1408 and the related provisions referenced on the decal.

Possessing or applying this decal does not by itself establish OSHA compliance or confirm that a work zone, clearance distance, voltage determination, or encroachment-prevention measure is correct for a specific operation.

This safety decal is designed for installation inside the operator's cab. It can also be mounted on a clean, flat exterior surface of the equipment that remains clearly visible to the operator before work begins and does not obstruct any controls, labels, or instructions.

This industrial safety decal may be used as a supplemental reference on mobile cranes, rough terrain cranes, crawler cranes, boom trucks, and articulating cranes. It provides operators of this lifting equipment with critical, on-the-spot power line safety information.

This decal provides a supplemental reference to selected planning information for heavy lifting equipment operating near overhead power lines. Workers must use the complete current regulations, work-zone assessment, voltage determination, employer procedures, and required encroachment-prevention measures when planning and performing the work.

A crane power line clearance requirement sticker is a highly visible safety decal outlining critical OSHA clearance guidelines and minimum approach distance tables. Placed directly on the machine, it gives operators instant access to the safety data needed.

This safety decal is designed for mobile cranes, rough terrain cranes, crawler cranes, boom trucks, and articulating cranes operating near electrical utilities. It keeps OSHA 1926.1408 Table A clearance requirements clearly posted in the operator's field of view.

This safety decal specifically references portions of OSHA standards 1926.1407, 1926.1408, and 1926.1409. These sections govern required clearance zones and additional encroachment prevention measures when operating heavy equipment near power lines.
