ISO 9001-1994 Cert. No. 001136 A. B. Chance Co. Centralia, MO USA Meets Applicable IEC Standards |

We support the safety interests of new OSHA regulations for testing hot-line tools. Based on the new daily and two-year requirements for inspection, testing, cleaning and repair, we conducted extensive tests in our Engineering and Research Center laboratories.
From our findings, we now offer you suggestions on how to make the regulations work to your best advantage and to most effectively stay in compliance.
Key to this practice is the Chance Hot Stick Tester. It presents a viable means for perform-ing OSHA-required wet tests on fiberglass hot sticks. Beyond what OSHA requires, we recommend dry testing all hot sticks on a periodic basis. This is for further assurance against defects or contamination that would require removing the tool from service.
It's part of our commitment to the electric utility industry. We recognize that safety must be practical and that rough working conditions on a line crew can limit the insulating life of even our hotsticks. Let us hear from you and we'll send our complete report.
