What is the High Voltage Proximity Act  (HVPA)? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
New York State Code Subchapter A. The Industrial Code Part 57. High Voltage Proximity Act Section 57.1  Title and citation Section 57.2  Purpose and intent of Part (rule) Section 57.3  Application Section 57.4  Definitions Section 57.5  Precautionary action Section 57.6  Employee information Section 57.7  High-voltage line proximity procedure Section 57.8  Warning signs Section 57.9  Civil penalty Section 57.10  Severability
From High Voltage Proximity Act Section 57.4 Definitions: “ High-voltage lines”  means electrical conductors installed  above ground and having a voltage differential in excess of  six hundred volts between any pair of conductors or between  any conductor and ground. In the case of alternating current,  the voltage shall be measured in R.M.S. value.  This definition shall not include approved armored cable used to supply power to portable equipment and insulated power cables enclosed in approved metallic raceways....   > 600 Volts
… All high-voltage lines shall be considered as  energized high-voltage lines until assurance  has been given that they are otherwise by  qualified representatives of the owners or  persons in charge of such lines.   Important Note:  The covering you  see on an overhead power line is  NOT insulation!
“ Dangerous proximity”  means a distance  within  ten feet  of high-voltage lines,  or   within such  greater  distances as are set  forth in the current editions and any  subsequent revisions of the regulations  of the United States Occupational Safety  and Health Administration (29 CFR 1910  and 1926), the New York Industrial code  (12 NYCRR part 23) and the National  Electrical Safety Code.

From High Voltage Proximity Act Section 57.6 Employee Information: ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
 
From High Voltage Proximity Act Section 57.7 High Voltage Line Proximity Procedure: At any site where any person or equipment may possibly come within dangerous proximity of a high-voltage line, such approach shall not be made until the following procedure has been complied with :
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
(2) Within  three  normal  working days  following the receipt  of such written notice, the  owner  or person in charge of  the high-voltage line  shall respond  to the person making  such approach or who is responsible for such activity of  the procedure to be followed prior to performing any work  in dangerous proximity to such high-voltage line. (3) The  owner  or person responsible for the high-voltage line  shall perform  all necessary  precautionary actions  to  be taken to  protect against  the danger from  contact  with such high-voltage line , either by de-energizing  such high-voltage line and grounding it where necessary,  or by approving in advance other effective methods or  devices for the particular cases and for the particular locations.
  (4) The employer, contractor or other  person responsible  for the activity  within dangerous proximity of such  high-voltage line  shall be responsible for all costs incurred in connection with such precautionary action  including determining what precautionary measures are  necessary and preparations for implementing them  whether or not such precautionary measures are  actually implemented
From High Voltage Proximity Act Section 57.8 - Warning Signs: ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],DANGER Unlawful To Operate Any Part Of This Equipment Within 10 Feet Of High-Voltage Lines
   (b) All posted warning signs shall specify the actual distance by  which the term "dangerous proximity" is defined for the  particular case and location to which this Part (rule) applies.  (c) Additional warning signs shall be placed on various parts of  the equipment and at the work site providing similar  warnings to others in the vicinity of the high-voltage lines.  (d) If for any reason and for any time period, the operator of  the equipment is unable to assess visually the clearance of  the equipment from overhead high-voltage lines, a second  person shall be designated to observe the clearance and  provide timely warning to the equipment operator.
