Working On or Near Exposed Energized Lines and Equipment Clarifies use of protective equipment. Provides updated NESC Tables (2. Code) (b) When working on energized circuits of equipment where the voltage between any two conductors is more than 4 k. V, the following minimum conditions shall be met in addition to all other rules governing the use of protective equipment. Employees shall be isolated from all grounds (wooden poles shall be considered as grounds in this case) by using approved supplementary insulation such as aerial baskets, a linesmans platform, or other approved insulated devices.

If the line conductor is down on the ground or work is being performed from an aerial device in mid- span where no structure is in the immediate work area, dual point grounding (bracket grounding) may be utilized.
When using dual point grounding, grounds shall be installed as close as practical to the work location and no further away than one span. Section 5 Electric Utility Operations. Section 5. 07. 1.

When installing truck grounds, the employee installing the ground must use a hand line to raise and lower the ground.
