Characteristic of x-ray table is/ are:
a- strong
b- has bucky (cassette tray)
c- has electrical safety
d- all of the above.
---------------------------
Electrical hazards can cause burns, electric shock and electrocution (death).
- Presume that all aerial cables are energized (live) at fatal voltages. Never assume that a cable can be touched safely even if it is out of order or appears to be isolated.
- Never touch a power line that has fallen. Call the utility to report downed power lines.
- Stay at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from overhead cables during cleaning and other activities. If you are working at heights or handling long objects, before starting work, evaluate the area to detect the presence of aerial cables.
- If an aerial cable falls on your vehicle while guiding, stay inside the vehicle and continue guiding away from the cable. If your vehicle's engine stops, do not leave the vehicle. Warn people not to touch the vehicle or the cable. Call, or ask someone to call, the local utility and emergency services.
- Never operate electrical equipment while standing on water.
Never repair cables or electrical equipment unless you are qualified and authorized.
- Before energizing the electrical equipment that has been wet, have a qualified electrician inspect it.
- If you are working in wet areas, inspect the cables and electrical equipment to make sure they are in good condition and free of defects, and use a ground loss circuit breaker (GFCI).
- Always be careful when working near electricity.

Electrical Safety: Let's avoid low voltage electrical accidents
Most accidents in homes are caused by a deficiency in the electrical installation or by the use of materials and / or products that do not meet the required safety conditions.
Electrical Safety consists in reducing the risk of harmful effects that may occur due to the application of a specific technique that involves the use of electrical equipment or work exposed to it. Argentina has Resolution No. 92/1998, of mandatory compliance, which requires that all electrical and electronic products sold within the country have an Electric Safety Certification issued by a Certification Body accredited by the OAA (Argentine Accreditation Body ) and recognized by the National Government. Certification schemes establish the essential safety requirements that certain products must meet.
It is known that most homes do not meet the essential Electrical Safety standards. Therefore, the following items must be met.
- Have a general cutting device: cutting key (switch).
- Overcurrent protection: overcurrent protector (thermomagnetic key) adapted to the installation requirement.
- Protection against indirect and direct contacts: grounding and differential device according to the value of the same.
- Protection cable: connects the installation masses with the grounding as protection against indirect contacts.
- Mechanical protection of the installations: protects the parts with tension of the installation.
When handling electrical installations, we must always be trained and trained to do so. All electrical installation or defective work equipment must be notified for repair. Only authorized and qualified personnel may operate in electrical equipment. In complex installations, documentation regarding them must be available. If an installation is modified, the documentation must be updated, indicating the date of completion. Whenever possible, perform electrical-type work without voltage. In this way we will only act with tension only in elementary operations
In case of finding fault or malfunction in an electrical equipment, it is appropriate to put it out of service, disconnect it from the power grid, signal the anomaly and report the incident for repair through the established channels.
Do not disconnect the equipment by pulling on the cables. This is a very common mistake that we must be aware of that should always be disconnected by taking the plug of the connector and pulling it. It is essential not to use power tools with wet hands or feet, much less use water to put out fires where it is possible that there is electrical tension

It is essential not to use power tools with wet hands or feet, much less use water to put out fires where it is possible that there is electrical tension
The most common accidents caused by electricity are due to:
Contact with parts of the installation usually in tension or otherwise contact with metal parts or elements accidentally placed under tension. To suffer burns by the electric arc produced by the union of 2 points to different potential by means of an element of low electrical resistance.
Before an electrocuted person should try to cut the tension. Remove the electrocuted from the voltage source, without maintaining direct contact with it, using insulating elements such as poles, wood, all wooden chairs, insulating gloves, etc. Warn the nearest people of this situation to initiate action activities in case of emergency.
We must comply with the 5 fundamental rules to avoid accidents.
- Disconnect the part of the installation in which it is going to work, isolating it from all possible voltage sources.
- Prevent any possible feedback, preferably by blocking the maneuvering mechanism.
- Verify the absence of tension in all active elements of the work area.
- Ground and short circuit all possible voltage sources. In Low Voltage installations it will only be mandatory if by induction or other reasons, they can accidentally be put on voltage.
- Protect the work area against the next elements in tension and establish an electrical safety signal to delimit it.
In addition to common personal protective equipment, workers must wear Class 00 gloves, sidewalks / insulating mats, absence of tension verifier, certified tools, signage and face shield.
10 secrets for a safe house.
- Provisional electrical installations may cause electric shock and fire.
- Avoid using triples to avoid generating an overload.
- Install the conductor to ground and differential devices.
- Check if the cables and protection devices are suitable for the electrical charge of your installation.
- Use separate circuits for lighting and outlets.
- The boards must be in clean and ventilated places.
- Do not touch electrical equipment when you are inside the bathtub.
Do not unplug electrical equipment by pulling on the cable.
- Areas such as the kitchen, laundry and bathroom, deserve special attention, because the combination of water and electricity can be dangerous.
- Always hire a qualified professional for these types of jobs.
It is necessary to conclude that we must always have the necessary information to avoid accidents and know the Electrical Safety norms and their subsequent control, the possibility of avoiding all types of accidents. Therefore, we respect the safety regulations!
