"The SCBA is fitted with a full-face mask and a demand valve to provide a small positive pressure inside the mask, a 'Demand valve' is designed to provide air flow as demanded by the wearer. Breathing apparatus can be cleaned and reused many times as recommended by the manufacturer and may be worn continuously for more than 1 hour.

SCBA is suitable for use in oxygen-deficient atmospheres and in harsh and demanding environments. It is also used for short-term work in tanks, trenches and sewers."

"The cable avoidance tool (CAT) is used to detect buried live power cables by locating the electrical frequency that these cables emit (typically 33KHz). Once the cable has been located, the ground can then be marked to show the layout of the cable so when the excavation takes place the cable is not damaged in any way.

If there are buried pipes, then a Generator (Genny) can be used by connecting the Genny via a signal clamp to one end of the pipe and then the Genny will emit a pulse tone down the buried pipe which can be traced using the CAT. This will then take away the risk of damaging the pipework when the excavation begins."

"Under domestic law (the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974) employers are responsible for ensuring the safety of their employees and others. This responsibility is reinforced by regulations. The Confined Space Regulations 1997 apply where the assessment identifies risks of serious injury from work in confined spaces.

These regulations contain the following key duties:

Avoid entry to confined spaces, e.g. by doing the work from the outside;
If entry to a confined space is unavoidable, follow a safe system of work; and
Put in place adequate emergency arrangements before the works start"

"The position of the individual components should be considered carefully, fixed sensors should be positioned to detect any gas accumulation before it creates a serious hazard. Factors to consider are:

the process plant and equipment
the type of sensor
the properties and dispersion characteristics of the gas
the ventilation pattern
other safety issues, e.g. location of personnel or equipment protection
The number of sensors should also be considered, failure or removal for maintenance of an individual sensor should not compromise the safety of the area being monitored. Duplication (or triplication) of sensors and control apparatus may be required for continuous monitoring and to prevent false alarms."

"You need to know what the oxygen content of the atmosphere is and whether there are explosive or toxic gases that could threaten the safety of the environment or, perhaps more importantly, your life. When properly used and maintained, gas detection monitors will protect both.

Not only do you need to monitor the atmosphere of your confined space to protect your life, but also OSHA requires you to do so. OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.146 (c) subsection (C) states: Before an employee enters the space, the internal atmosphere shall be tested with a calibrated gas detector, for the following conditions in the order given: (1) oxygen content, (2) flammable gases and vapours, and (3) potential toxic air contaminants."

"Every job will need to be assessed and a decision made as to how many attachment points are required. If there is a potential that recovery will be required then a harness with an overhead attachment point will be required. However, if working on a roof or scaffolding then only front and rear attachments are required.

An energy-absorbing lanyard is a line for connecting a full body harness to an anchorage point with an inbuilt device that reduces the impact of a fall. There is a wide range of possible causes of degradation of synthetic fibres used in webbing and rope lanyards including abuse, general wear and tear, edge/surface damage, ultraviolet light, dirt, grit and chemicals."

"Falls from height are one of the biggest causes of workplace fatalities and major injuries. Common causes are falls from ladders and through fragile roofs. The purpose of the Working at Heights Regulations is to prevent death and injury from a fall from height. Working at height means work in any place where, if there were no precautions in place, a person could fall a distance liable to cause personal injury. For example:

Working on a ladder or a flat roof
Could fall through a fragile surface
Could fall into an opening in a floor or a hole in the ground

There is a common misconception that ladders and stepladders are banned, but this is not the case. There are many situations where a ladder is the most suitable equipment for working at height. Before working at height, you must work through these simple steps:"
