27 Blast Site Safety-Loading Electrical Storms, Use the 30 Second Rule If the time between seeing lightning and hearing thunder is less than thirty seconds, you are in danger. You can turn on a AM radio to detect if any lightning is in the area. Listen for static. Lightning detectors can be used.
28 Blast Site Safety-Loading Electrical Storms Surface-During the progress and approach of an electrical storm, all blasting operations shall cease. Underground-Electrical blasting operations capable of being initiated by lightning shall be suspended and miners withdrawn from the blast area until safe to return. All miners shall be evacuated from the blast area until the storm has passed. Bad Weather
29 Blast Site Safety-Loading Electric Detonators Check Continuity of each detonator prior to stemming and circuit resistance prior to connection to the power source. Only use approved BLASTER s Galvanometer and BLASTER s multimeter to check electric detonators and circuits.
30 Blast Site Safety-Loading E*Star Electronic Detonators: Internal shunting by protective devises contained in the E*Star detonator replaces the need for an exterior mechanical means of shunting.
31 Blast Site Safety- Loading Non-Electric Detonators Have a second qualified person verify all non-electric connections.
32 Blast Site Safety-Loading Lead Detonator Connection Once the Lead detonator is connected, the lead lines/wires must be manually unreeled.
