A NFPA 70E regulation provides guidelines for what topic?

• A. Electrical safety
• B. Fire safety
• C. Mechanical safety
• D. Chemical safety

Answer: (A)

NFPA 70E provides guidelines for electrical safety in the workplace. It covers protection from electrical hazards such as shock and arc flash by outlining safe work practices, de-energizing equipment, lockout/tagout, risk assessment to determine incident energy, and selecting appropriate PPE and protective boundaries. It also includes training requirements and provisions for equipment maintenance to minimize arc-flash risk. It does not focus on fire safety, mechanical safety, or chemical safety, which are addressed by other standards.
