Electrical Safety at Fairs, Field Days and
Other Public Events
Electrical safety is an important
consideration at all public events, especially when these events occur
outdoors, in damp conditions, or in facilities with unfinished floors.
Refer to our Electrical Safety Recommendations for guidance on how to
eliminate electrical hazards at public events. You can use our
Basic Electrical Safety Checklist to conduct an informal inspection
before each public activity.
