Planned Methods To Reduce Risks

  • Before any work commences, all equipment containing PCB will be inspected for signs of leakage.

  • In the event of equipment containing PCB found to be leaking, the electrical contractor will report the situation to the site owners.

  • Staff involved with equipment containing PCB will be made aware of the potential health hazards of PCB, and the precautions to be put in place.

  • Only a fully licensed waste disposal company will move or dispose of PCB.
