Transcript text: A construction activity that is at risk for contact with underground energized electrical systems is:
A. Excavation activities
B. Earth drillers
C. Jack hammering
D. Fence Installation
E. All the above
Solution
The answer is E: All the above.
Explanation for each option:
A. Excavation activities: Excavation involves digging into the ground, which can potentially disturb underground electrical systems if they are present.
B. Earth drillers: Earth drilling involves penetrating the ground, which can also come into contact with underground electrical systems.
C. Jack hammering: Jack hammering involves breaking up the ground or pavement, which can inadvertently strike underground electrical systems.
D. Fence Installation: Installing fences often requires digging post holes, which can also risk contact with underground electrical systems.
Since all these activities involve some form of ground penetration or disturbance, they all pose a risk of contacting underground energized electrical systems. Therefore, the correct answer is E: All the above.
