2. OHS for effective computer troubleshooting Follow the three most important things below: What you wear might save you! Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) is not your best friend! Working Safely with Electricity!

3. Hand Tools

4. 1. Side Cutter Pliers - a tool used for cutting or trimming of connecting wires or terminal leads in the circuit board

5. 2. Long nose Pliers - Used for holding, bending and stretching the lead of electronics component or connecting wire.

6. 3. Crimping Tool- -a tool made of metal with plastic-rubber handle, to press into small folds, to frill, to corrugate.

7. 4. Tweezers- - a tool use to hold small sensitive part of a computer.

8. 5. Cutter - a tool used in cutting wires.

9. 6. Flat Screw Driver - a tool used to drive or fasten negative slotted screws

10. 7. Philips Screw Driver - a tool used to drive or fasten positive slotted screws.

11. 8. Flashlight a small electric light, a flash of electric light used to give light in dark conditions.

12. 9. Paint Brush- a device made of bristles set in handle, use for cleaning sensitive parts of a computer.

13. 10. Magnifying glass a device made in glass with handle, to exaggerate or to increase the apparent size of an object.

14. 11. Volt-Ohms-Millimeter (VOM) - - A measuring instrument used by technician for measuring: current, voltage, resistance

15. 12. LAN Tester is a device used to test the network connection.

16. 13. Anti--Static Wrist wrap- - is a device used to eliminate electrostatic discharge in your work area.

17. 14. Soldering Pencil a tool used to join two or more metal conductors with the support of soldering lead melted around it.

18. 15. Desoldering Tool - a tool used to unsoldered unwanted parts or component in the circuit with the support of soldering pencil

19. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT - (PPE) refers to protective clothing, helmets, goggles, or other garment designed to protect the wearer's body from injury by blunt impacts, electrical hazards, heat, chemicals, and infection, for job-related occupational safety and health purposes, and in sports, martial arts, combat, etc.

20. Importance of Personal Protective Equipment: The type of personal protective equipment (PPE) needed when using hand tools depends on the nature of the task. At a minimum, eye protection should always be worn. The use of hand protection may also be appropriate to provide protection against cuts, abrasion, and repeated impact .

21. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT The purpose of personal protective equipment is to reduce exposure to hazards in a workplace. PPE is needed when there are hazards present.

22. Categories of Personal Protective Equipment Eye and Face Protection – This will be used to avoid being exposed to a large number of hazards that pose danger to their eyes and face. Face shields. Safety spectacles. Goggles

23. Categories of Personal Protective Equipment Foot and Leg Protection - Used for possible foot or leg injuries from the Moist floors, Non-grounded Power Extension cables and Power Surge that you might get a serious injuries. Safety shoes

24. Categories of Personal Protective Equipment Hand and Arm Protection - If a workplace hazard assessment reveals that workers face potential injury to hands and arms that cannot be eliminated through work activity and practice controls. Working Gloves

25. Categories of Personal Protective Equipment Body Protection – This is used to protect possible bodily injury in the work place, workers must wear appropriate body protection while performing their jobs. In addition to cuts and radiation and avoid some electrical charges leaks that cannot be eliminated. Body suits

26. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT Includes: Safety Precautions Preventive Maintenance Protective Devices Accident Reports

27. Other Personal Protective Devices Anti-Static devices - These are the devices used to protect computer units from electro static discharge. Anti-static Wrist Strap – or ESD wrist strap, or ground bracelet - to prevent the buildup of static electricity on their body Anti-static Mat- designed to help eliminate static electricity. It does this by having a controlled low resistance: Anti-static Bag - is a bag used for shipping (usually electronic) components, which are prone to damage caused by electrostatic discharge.

28. Other Personal Protective Devices An electrostatic-sensitive device (ESD) is any component which can be damaged by common static charges which build up on people, tools, and other non-conductors or semiconductors. ESD commonly also stands for electrostatic discharge . Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR) Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS )

29. Other Personal Protective Devices Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR)- is designed to automatically maintain a constant voltage level. A voltage regulator may be a simple "feed-forward" design or may include negative feedback control loops. It may use an electromechanical mechanism, or electronic components. Depending on the design, it may be used to regulate one or more AC or DC voltages.

30. Other Personal Protective Devices Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) - is an electrical apparatus that provides emergency power to a load when the input power source, typically mains power, fails. A UPS differs from an auxiliary or emergency power system or standby generator in that it will provide near-instantaneous protection from input power interruptions, by supplying energy stored in batteries, super capacitors, or flywheels. .

31. Other Personal Protective Devices Anti-Static devices - These are the devices used to protect computer units from electro static discharge. Anti-static Wrist Strap – or ESD wrist strap, or ground bracelet - to prevent the buildup of static electricity on their body Anti-static Mat- designed to help eliminate static electricity. It does this by having a controlled low resistance: Anti-static Bag - is a bag used for shipping (usually electronic) components, which are prone to damage caused by electrostatic discharge.

32. Importance of Personal Protective Equipment: The type of personal protective equipment (PPE) needed when using hand tools depends on the nature of the task. At a minimum, eye protection should always be worn. The use of hand protection may also be appropriate to provide protection against cuts, abrasion, and repeated impact .
