France and more particularly RTE (Réseau Transport Electricité) is a pioneer in carrying out LW work in very high voltage sub-stations (225 kV and 400 kV). In the 1980s, SERECT, the RTE centre of expertise for live working, developed an Insulating Positioning Tower (IPT) to be able to carry out bare-hand live working in these sub-stations. Although the IPT was a revolution in its day, today it no longer meets the company's needs completely: neither in terms of ergonomics (climbing, access), nor in terms of design (tedious assembly), nor in terms of technology (silicone treatment, restricted use in a damp environment). With the benefit of these observations, SERECT has worked with France Elévateur to develop a Mobile Elevating Work Platforms for live working in very high voltage sub-stations (Sub-station LW MEWP). This MEWP uses the latest technologies. Ergonomics of the workstation are improved. It can be moved and positioned more rapidly and more precisely. The machinery is equipped with an insulating boom with fins, ready to be used; no assembly, no drying and no silicone treatment before starting work.

The Portuguese Distribution System Operator is going to assess all of the workers who want to undertake any form of live working in the network. Nowadays, in Portugal these workers belong to DSO outsourcing contractors. The work here presented is about how the outsourcing companies can screen, train and evaluate their workers, both with experience and without experience, and to ensure the selected ones can acquire the qualification. This process requires the human resources division of the company, as well as supervisors and/or managers of the workers to apply a set of evaluation scores which include, Academic Qualification, Professional Training, Professional Experience, and the strategic relevance of each worker for the company.

Visual inspection of the line was the first method used and remains the most common one for energy supply companies. This surface's coating damage (that can be an indicator for internal defects) is usually discovered. These defects are often barely visible and require more precise search methods. That is why in the final project for Group 1 is presented as Management Platform Maintenance and Monitoring Airlines applicable to medium and high voltage. This simply uses management tools that are available on the World Wide Web and operates a Monitoring Software, linked together. If they are properly used they anticipate the outage of the line by an undetected fault.

This presentation explains why Live Work was introduced in Powerlink substations in 2001 and how it has been used since. One measure of the performance of a transmission network resides with the reliability of both substation and line assets. Live Work on line assets is a mature practice that network owners have invested in to minimise interruptions to critical circuits. Powerlink's implementation of Live Work practices on substation plant provides a holistic approach to reliability and availability across the entire transmission network. Limited proven methodologies for Live Work in substation practices were available for evaluation considering the preferred option was an adaptable and safe approach based on specific risk analysis. Reseau de Transport d'Electricite's (RTE's) approach for Live Work in substations met Powerlink's requirements with regard to risk analysis as it uses a specific analysis for each task and environment. Performing Live Work tasks in a safe manner is dependent on using and applying suitable methods and tools and meeting general safety regulations and specific Live Working Conditions manual. The core of the Live Work Conditions manual was initially drawn up by RTE (SERECT; Service dedicated since 1962) which develops and markets specific tools according to the warranted characteristics presented in their Technical Sheets. At Powerlink, Live Work Hotstick and Barehand methods have been used safely and without incident for 12 years. With 14,000 hours of Live Work performed yearly, the Live Substation Team has 10 operators/team leaders accredited by Powerlink to perform Live Work. Live Substation Work is often selected as the preferred method for project and maintenance tasks for the 126 substations Powerlink has across Queensland. As a demonstration of Live Work skills and know-how, Powerlink presents a complex Live Work job at Tarong Substation: The objective was to increase the capacity of the 275 kV switchyard by installing additional bus-bar lengths in parallel to the existing buses in a vertical configuration. All operations involved the Live Substation Team, whilst maintaining the whole 275 kV switch yard operational; i.e. without any outages to the 275 kV buses and feeders and all tasks carried out under Live Work rules. The additional bus-bars have been put in place using crimped joints with welded tags. In total, the Live Substation Team carried out the placement of 48xlO m long bus-bars (totaling 480 m of bus length).
本报告解释了2001年Powerlink变电站引入Live Work的原因，以及自那以后它是如何被使用的。输电网络性能的一个衡量标准是变电站和线路资产的可靠性。在线资产实时工作是一种成熟的做法，网络所有者已经投资于这种做法，以尽量减少对关键电路的中断。Powerlink在变电所实施的现场工作实践为整个输电网络的可靠性和可用性提供了一种全面的方法。考虑到首选方案是基于特定风险分析的适应性强且安全的方法，可用于评估变电站实践中有限的现场工作方法。Reseau de Transport d’electricite (RTE)的变电站现场作业方法满足了Powerlink对风险分析的要求，因为它对每个任务和环境都进行了特定的分析。以安全的方式执行带电工作任务取决于使用和应用合适的方法和工具，并符合一般安全法规和具体的带电工作条件手册。现场工作条件手册的核心最初是由RTE (secret;自1962年以来一直致力于服务)，根据其技术表中提供的保证特性开发和销售特定工具。在Powerlink, Live Work Hotstick和Barehand方法已经安全使用了12年，没有发生任何事故。每年进行14000小时的现场工作，现场变电站团队有10名操作员/团队负责人通过Powerlink认证来执行现场工作。对于Powerlink在昆士兰州的126个变电站，现场变电站工作通常被选为项目和维护任务的首选方法。作为现场工作技能和专业知识的演示，Powerlink在Tarong变电站展示了一个复杂的现场工作:目标是通过在垂直配置中平行于现有母线安装额外的母线长度来增加275千伏开关站的容量。所有的操作都涉及到现场变电站团队，同时保持整个275千伏开关站的运行;即不中断275千伏母线和馈线以及根据现场工作规则执行的所有任务。额外的母线已经使用焊接标签的卷曲接头放置到位。总而言之，现场变电站团队进行了48xlO m长母线的放置(总母线长度为480 m)。

Insulating ropes are indispensable work equipment for live working. The processes, which after exposure to moisture and the resulting leakage current reduce the electric and mechanic strength of insulating ropes, are of particular interest and insufficiently researched. Firstly, this paper describes the rope as an electric insulating system and presents significant processes at interfaces of ropes stressed by wetness in detail. Investigations on capillaries, which enable definitions of processes based on the waveforms of voltage and current, are explained. These results are compared with time profiles of voltage and current measured on ropes. In conclusion the results of the investigations on capillaries will be used for the classification of the processes in the ropes.

According to European OSH regulation and existing arc testing standards it is necessary for people in charge to select appropriate PPE in order to the arc energy level at the working place. The growing demand for arc protection PPE and its growing importance is reflected by high activity in standardization of arc protection PPE. That's why also the market is moving and presents costumer a wider range of products for all protection levels. The paper deals with special arc protection PPE which combine high protection level with high degree of ergonomics. It presents an algorithm and software tool for determining the necessary arc protection level of PPE for working places. Further more PPE will be presented which have an arc protection level beyond box-test class 2 to provide special protection for electrical work with higher risks of an electric arc e.g. switching operations.

For about 50 years, SERECT has been developing technical specifications that define the characteristics of so-called `special' shoes and boots to protect Live Working (LW) operators against electric shocks resulting from step voltage. Personal protective equipment (PPE) placed on the market and put into service for LW in France are subject to both general regulation such as the `PPE' Directive 89/686/EEC and to French LW legislation. SERECT is responsible for qualifying these PPE as regards these two regulation levels so that medium voltage LW teams can purchase safe manufactured PPE and can use them in accordance with French LW rules. The design, construction and placing on the market of PPE protecting against mortal or serious dangers being strictly controlled by the PPE Directive, SERECT must rely on notified bodies to have its technical specifications approved before supervising the qualification of manufacturers' footwear with respect to EC certification procedures and French approval procedures for LW tools.

Conductive clothing are a mandatory tool to assure the safety of live line working when the bare hand technique is used. This is particularly true for the maintenance of UHV lines. In this work we discuss some tests performed to determine the shielding characteristics of facial masks. Some numerical simulations have been performed to assess how much of the tests prescribed by the IEC 60895 standard are cautionary.
