Electrocution whilst working on metallic pipes (such as when replacing water meters) is always a possibility, and that’s why EnergySafe Victoria strongly recommends the use of an Abnormal Voltage Detection Device (AVDD) and bonding straps whilst works are underway.
The Main to Meter Course closely covers the correct use of Abnormal Voltage Detection Devices (AVDDs) and bonding straps and provides a detailed understanding of just how important it is to use this equipment properly.
