Testing gloves after they have been put in service is typically recommended to be conducted every six months. This time frame allows for the evaluation of the gloves' condition and effectiveness in providing the necessary protection against electrical hazards. Regular testing is essential because gloves can degrade or sustain damage during use, which may not be immediately visible. By adhering to the six-month testing interval, users ensure that they are always utilizing gloves that meet safety standards and are functioning as intended. This practice is a critical part of maintaining safety protocols for electrical workers, helping to prevent serious injuries or accidents related to inadequate personal protective equipment (PPE).
