Preventing electric shock
感電の防止
Learn what to do so that you are not hurt by electricity, and what to do when you see a person getting an electric shock.
Key points
Electric shock (kanden) means electricity flowing through the body. People can die from it. Electricity flows easily when the body is wet with water or sweat, so do not touch electric tools or cords with wet hands.
感電は、体に電気が流れることです。亡くなることもあります。体が水や汗でぬれていると電気が流れやすいので、ぬれた手で電気の道具やコードにさわりません。
Do not use a damaged cord or a broken plug. If you find one, stop using it and tell the foreman (shokucho). Do not repair it yourself.
傷のあるコードや、こわれたプラグは使いません。見つけたら、使うのをやめて職長に知らせます。自分で直しません。
With overhead power lines, you can get an electric shock just by going near them, even without touching them. Before using a crane or long materials near power lines, check the safety measures with the foreman. Do not go near a power line that has broken and is hanging down.
頭の上の電線は、さわらなくても、近づくだけで感電することがあります。クレーンや長い材料を電線の近くで使う前に、安全の対策を職長に確かめます。切れてたれた電線には近づきません。
You must not immediately touch a person who is getting an electric shock. You will get a shock too. Call for people in a loud voice, have the electricity turned off, and call 119.
感電している人に、すぐにさわってはいけません。自分も感電します。大きな声で人を呼び、電気を切ってもらい、119番に電話します。
Work to connect electric wires and electrical repairs may be done only by people who have received the required training or who have a qualification. Even if you are asked, do not do it. For the distribution board (the box that divides the electricity), follow the rules of your workplace and do not open it without permission.
電気の線をつなぐ工事や修理は、決められた教育を受けた人や資格のある人だけができます。頼まれても、しません。分電盤（電気を分ける箱）は、職場の決まりにしたがい、勝手に開けません。
