Electrical insulated rubber gloves should be used to protect users from electrical shocks and burns. According to OSHA (29 CFR 1910.137(c)(2)(viii) and the referenced Table I-5), all electrical gloves must be tested periodically and prior to being placed into service. Myth: Rubber gloves and rubber shoes protect you from electricity. Truth: That's true only if they are 100 percent pure rubber with no holes or tears (the kind that electrical linemen wear). #hazard #electric #safety #shock #gloves
