Overview
What this RAVS document does
Electrical hazards cause some of the most severe injuries on a worksite - shock, arc flash, and arc blast. Hiring clients require an electrical safety answer because they need to know a contractor controls those hazards through trained workers, energy isolation, and safe work practices rather than chance.
This document states your company's electrical safety program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: how electrical hazards are identified, the safe work practices for working on or near electrical equipment, energy isolation and de-energization, arc flash awareness, and worker training and competency. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies
What ISNetworld checks
ISNetworld does not just check that an electrical safety answer exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For the electrical safety element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- A written electrical safety program with a clear purpose and scope
- How electrical hazards are identified and assessed
- Safe work practices for working on or near electrical equipment
- De-energization, isolation, and lockout before electrical work
- Arc flash awareness and the protective equipment it requires
- Worker training and the competency required for electrical work

Who it is for
Who needs this RAVS
This RAVS is for Alberta contractors whose hiring clients require the electrical safety element in ISNetworld, Avetta, or ComplyWorks. It applies to electrical contractors and to any company whose workers work on or near electrical equipment - construction, oil and gas, utilities, industrial maintenance, and instrumentation. If a hiring client's pre-qualification configuration flags electrical safety, this is the document the reviewer is waiting on.
Practical guidance
How to pass the electrical safety review the first time
- Use the Alberta version. The document is written to Alberta OHS legislation and the CSA Z462 standard, the framework ISNetworld reviewers expect for Alberta work.
- Match the answer to your scope. If your crews only work near electrical equipment rather than on it, the document should reflect that. A reviewer expects the answer to fit the work you actually do.
- Confirm worker competency. Electrical work is expected to be done by qualified, trained workers. Make sure that competency is documented before a hiring client audit asks.
