Portable Electrical Equipment Maintenance Program

J.
Inspection and Testing of Portable Electrical Equipment Involves
1 VISUAL INSPECTION – CORDS, 5. CHECK FOR INTEGRITY OF
PLUGS, GUARDS PROTECTIVE EARTH AND
INSULATION RESISTANCE
2 VISUAL INSPECTION – 6. CORDS SECURELY ANCHORED TO
ACCESSORIES EXTENTION LEADS EQUIPMENT AND PLUG
AND CONNECTORS
3 DISCOLOURATION 7. DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT OR
CORDS
4 EXPOSURE TO HEAT, CHEMICALS OR 8. OPERATING CONTROLS ARE IN GOOD
MOISTURE ORDER, SECURE AND ALLIGNED

All portable electrical appliances such as grinders, welders, drills, saws are subject to testing and
tagging.

Testing and Tagging is to be conducted annually by the Chief Engineer or Electrical Officer.

Testing and tagging of portable electrical appliances is to be conducted with the use of an insulated
resistance meter and ohmmeter.

HELPFUL NOTES FOR E/R AUDIT

A. Admin and Records

Start with daily records and log books and look for a reflection of daily activities.
A lone entry such as “continue with TM or daily maintenance” would not be considered
adequate.

B. Pre work lists

What we want to see here is a culture of using the J.S.A. and pre-work sheets much as an
airline pilot uses his pre-flight check lists; it is an aid, pretty much like a crib sheet before
taking an exam, we are trying not to overlook anything. Only in this case we only pass the
exam when the task is completed without any incidents. We want ENCOURAGEMENT NOT
PUNISHMENT!

C. Engine Room Records.

There should be no omissions here, these items should be kept simply but current and up to
date.

D. Safety and Critical

These items as seen should be in good order and ready to go. Most of these have the capacity
to be life savers.

E. Engine Room Equipment

Here we look for a general ambience and feeling. It is usually more beneficial to highlight
good points found and to give praise than it is to look for failings.

F. Main Engines

Is the most valuable and critical plant on the ship and normally this is reflected in the
engineers attitude to its upkeep and maintenance. It is probably best to be very circumspect
here and take around 30 mins per engine.

G. Deck Machinery operator feedback

This is about how the deck crew see the way in which their equipment is serviceable and any
queries or problems are dealt with in a safe and timely manner.

H. D.P. system

Again a feedback exercise from Capt. and mates.

I. Emergency Equipment

Speaks for itself really, all this stuff is like the seat belt and airbags in your car:- taken for
granted until you really need it!

J. Portable Electrical Equipment Maintenance Program

A vigilant and common sense approach is required here. Visual checks should be conducted
before every use. The maintenance check should be conducted every 6 months. Testing and
tagging is required annually.

OVERVIEW
What we are looking to find or achieve by carrying out audits like these is to
encourage a culture where crew take ownership of problems and shortfalls and
start working together to achieve an improved and safer work place.
