- Offence or breach
- Prohibits use of infrared heat lamp within paint spraying booths to dry flammable coatings e.g., lacquer. As there is a risk that flammable vapours given off by coatings as they dry could be ignited by this electrical equipment, as it has not been manufactured to a standard which makes it intrinsically safe to operate in an environment which contains a flammable atmosphere. Because as an employer you have failed to ensure that risk is either eliminated or reduced so far as is reasonably practicable, such as by providing a system for drying vehicles and vehicle parts coated with flammable lacquer which does not introduce an ignition source to the area of work.
