Can anyone point me in the direction for information on the above. Not the technical data but info that would be disseminated to employees for safety puroposes.
Thanks

Stephen,
You may find some useful information in the CITB publication entitled Construction Site Safety GE 700/20.
Construction sites operate on reduced voltages (110v). Other than this try the Institute of Electrical engineers.
Kind regards
Richard

I am not quite sure what you mean by 'low voltage directive', however the Institute of Electical Engineers Wiring Regulations (16th edition) defines high voltage as any voltage in excess of 1000v ac. Therefore by implication, low voltage is any voltage less than this, but above 50v ac, below which the voltage is classified as extra low.
I hope this helps.

If it's for informing/training workpeople generally, I would confine myself to the principals found in INDG231 'Electrical Safety and You', the requirements of the Electricity at Work Regulations and the relevant parts of various industry-related HSE publications (such as HSG150 for Construction). Reference to the Low Voltage Directive may be confusing - particularly as it includes 230v ac systems.
