I am unable to determine the specific PPE required for testing post-tension cables from the documents provided. However, some general guidance can be offered. When performing electrical work, it is important to wear appropriate electrical protective equipment 2, 3, 6. This may include insulating gloves and sleeves [1]. When working at elevated positions, safety straps and body belts should be worn [2]. Prior to each use, personal fall arrest cables should be inspected 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20.
Important Safety Note:
Always verify safety information with your organization's specific guidelines and local regulations.
