Abstract

The mind of an engineer should be fraught with the cliché - ‘Safety First’ - as he or she involves in all engineering activities, evolving from idea conception to implementation or final production. This paper does not contest the fact that electrical hazard can affect anybody that his or her body forms part of an electrical circuit. However, according to research, women have higher electrical body resistance than men and this fact has prompted the writing of this paper. The paper’s aim is to create a splendid emphatic awareness for the electrical safety related-work practices policy makers and regulators, the entire female colleagues, students and electrical appliance users to the safety of their lives while working or using or passing by or standing by electrical appliances. The discourse is an in-depth tutorial on electric hazard with emphasis on the female gender
