IEEE P1307 | Standard for Fall Protection for Utility Work | Comments due August 27th

With many campus power systems with connected load in excess of 100 MVA they are operating at utility scale and should be held to the same standard of care as regulated utilities.

This standard provides requirements for a fall protection program for transmission and distribution structures and equipment. The requirements covered under this standard are based on sound engineering principles, engineering safety considerations, and research into the tools, methods, practices, and training provided to and by electric power workers. It does not include work in vaults, manholes, or other confined spaces. Requirements regarding stairways and scaffolding of all types are not considered in this standard.
