If a neutral connection is degraded, the electrical current may not be able to flow back to the electrical source and may find another path to travel, such as a water pipe, metal taps, gas fittings or any other conductor of electricity.</p> <p>If you then touch the water pipe, metal tap, gas fitting or other conductor, you may receive an electrical shock, which can be potentially life threatening.</p> <h2>Warning signs to look out for</h2> <ul><li>electric shock from water pipes, taps, gas fittings, appliances or any exposed metallic surface;</li> <li>unexplained brightening and dimming of lights; and</li> <li>unusual performance from electrical appliances (i.e. unusual noises from an air-conditioning unit or fans).</li> </ul><h2>What should I do if I receive an electric shock?</h2> <ol><li>report all electric shocks to your network operator immediately (contact numbers below);</li> <li>avoid touching any metallic appliances, water taps, gas fittings or metallic surfaces until the network operator can determine the cause of the fault; and</li> <li>seek medical attention. Regardless of how minor the electric shock is, you should seek medical attention as an electric shock can affect your body sometime after it occurred.</li> </ol><h2>Reporting</h2> <p>Regulations require that all electrical accidents that occur in Western Australia, irrespective of their seriousness, must be immediately reported to:</p> <ul><li>the employer (if relevant); and </li> <li>the relevant network operator. If the person making the report cannot identify the network operator, the accident must be reported to the Director of Energy Safety at Building and Energy.</li> </ul><p>When the accident is reported to the employer, the employer is also required to report it immediately to the relevant network operator (or Building and Energy if the network operator cannot be identified).</p> <p><strong>Network Operator contact numbers</strong></p> <ul><li>Western Power 13 13 51</li> <li>Horizon Power 13 23 51</li> <li>Rio Tinto: 1800 992 777</li> <li>BHP Billiton: 1300 632 483 – option 4</li> <li>Peel Renewable Energy (Zenith Energy) 1800 571 211</li> <li>Indian Ocean Territories Power Service (IOTPS) and Christmas and Cocos (Keeling) Islands: 9164 7111</li> <li>Building and Energy (where the Network Operator is not known): 1800 678 198</li> </ul><div class="grey-wrap"> <h3>Electric shocks fact sheet</h3> <p><a class="blue-link" href="/publications/electric-shocks-fact-sheet">Click here to download the fact sheet</a></p></div> </div></div> <div class="last_modified"><p>Last modified: <time datetime="2024-01-24T11:47:50+08:00">Wednesday, January 24, 2024 -
