Portable Generator Safety Checklist

Portable generators are internal combustion engines used to generate electricity. While extremely useful in disaster cleanup or other operations requiring a source of temporary or remote power, portable generators also create significant hazards, including:

  • Shock and electrocution resulting from improper use of power or accidentally energizing other electrical systems.
  • Carbon monoxide poisoning from generator’s exhaust.
  • Fire which may result from improper refueling or storing of generator fuel.
  • Noise and vibration.

Here’s a basic Checklist you can use to ensure safe portable generator selection and use and document compliance with applicable OHS requirements, available in both Word doc and PDF formats.
