  2. Use the table to make quick assessment of installations : At your arrival When looking for a new building to rent Useful to do a quick assessment of the 5 essential safety rules Quick Assessment • If the building is noted : • 0 to 3 / 10 : Building need emergency works, contact the HQ energyrequest@actioncontrelafaim.org to estimate works • 4 to 7 / 10 : Works are to be planned. It is necessary to plan adapted budgets to perform it during the next 6 months • 8 to 10 / 10 : The building is at minimum standard level. You can plan small works to improve user’s safety conditions

  3. Quick Assessment 2-Use one column per building, for example : Column 1 : Main office Column 2 : Programs office Column 3 : Guest 1 … if more than 5 building, save as a new file 1-Choose language and fill country/city/base/date 3- For each building, indicate type of use, if existing backup and fill indicator following your observations When done, see your note and send the file to energyrequest@actioncontrelafaim.org

  4. Basic safety rule #1 • No possibilty of direct contact = 1 pt • If you notice nude wires or any possibility of direct contact, you have to make works to avoid them • That happens especially with detached switches and outlets, when an equipment is removed and not replaced, on bad connection of two wires

  5. Basic safety rule #2 • No electricity more close than 1,5 m from water = 2 pt No wire, socket, switch or electrical equipment of any kind That concerns bathrooms, kitchens, any room with tap, … And also water dispensor ! Because of possible leackage Water Computer UPS Photocopier

  6. Basic safety rule #2 • Whatever skills or countries, a local electrician is able to create a new socket outlet and to disconnect & seal the old one. • Do not wait the incident • or somebody obliges you to do it ! • => Remove these items from water immediately

  7. Basic safety rule #3 • Electrical panel (switch board) = 3pts Building must have an electrical switch board => 1pt Correctly fixed, without signs of burn => + 1pt With adapted protections => + 1pt 2pt 1pt 3pt

  8. Basic safety rule #4 • Size of cables = 1 pt

  9. An under-sized cable if hot, and can burn. If you don’t have any electrical notion, but you touch a wire and you feel it is hot, it is not normal ! and you have to change it. That mainly happens with heavy equipment (boilers, heaters, air conditioning, …), with long wires, and with overload multi-plugs. Wire undersized is the first cause of fire starts ! Please refer to electrical and saftey guidelines to choose the size of wires. Basic safety rule #4 • Wires have to respect minimum standard sizes

  10. To verify it, you can use an outlet tester => (order at HQ or locally if you are not equipped) If you do not have testor = 0 pt If testor indicate earth connection = 1 pt (3 lights illuminated on HQ model) Residualbreakercanalsobetestedwithsametestor. If the testedoutletiswellfittedearthconnectionfollowthisprocess : Plug the testor in an outletwhereisconnected an equipmentusing water Set the button to « 30 mA » Verifythat sensible equipment are switched off (NAS, IT devices, …) and push the redbutton : If testedoutletis not poweredanymore (3 lights are off) = 1 pt If testedoutletstillpoweredanymore (3 lights are illuminated) = 0 pt Basic safetyrule #5 • Earth connection for equipment using water = 1 pt • (washing machines, boilers, water heater, dispensors, water pumps, …) • Building fitted with Residual breaker = 1 pt

  11. Use local resources : With working currently on the building, local electricians are more efficient to detect and solve problems Regular works subcontracting to local electrician allow them to maintain their skills. To not care of installation maintenance is like transform maintenance operation in renewal works, generally difficult to assume for the base or the mission. In case of no local skills, or to verify/estimate local works : Contact the HQ => energyrequest@actioncontrelafaim.org Basic safety rule #General • If you have any doubt, don’t touch… …and ask a local electrician or the HQ
