Redesignation Table

At 51 FR 25294, July 11, 1986, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration revised the electrical safety standards for construction in Subpart K— Electrical (29 CFR Part 1926). The revised provisions contain four major parts covering not only the design safety standards for electrical systems, but also safety-related work practices, safety-related maintenance and environmental conditions, and safety requirements for special equipment. The following Distribution Table shows the disposition of the sections formerly found in Subpart K.

1926.401(d).

1926.404(f)(7)(iv); requirement has been
reworded to be consistent with the
1984 NEC.* Requirement now lists
specific conditions requiring the
grounding of portable equipment.
1926.404(f)(7) (iii) and (v); requirement
has been reworded to be consistent
with the 1984 NEC. Requirements
now list specific conditions requiring
the grounding of fixed equipment.
1926.404(f)(6); requirements relating to
impedance and ampacity of grounding
conductor have been removed to be
consistent with 29 CFR Part 1910,
Subpart S. Briefly, these requirements
have been removed because the pa-
rameters cannot be accurately meas-
ured in operational workplaces. Fur-
ther discussion of OSHA's rationale
for removing these requirements can
be found in the preamble to the Sub-
part S final rule document (January
16, 1981, 46 FR 4044, Column 3,
Discussion of Issue No. 5).
Ground resistance of driven rod elec-
trodes is covered by 1926.404(f)(10).
