The usage of electricity in doing the day-to-day tasks in the workplace is a common practice.

There are electrical safety programs in place but still, there are a lot of fatalities in the workplace because of exposure to sensitive electricity-based tools. There are safety manuals in place but there are other reasons that these safety issues occur all the time in the maintenance and reliability industry.

Asset management can be used to enhance the value of a piece of equipment. So what is asset management? It is simply a process to make sure you get the value that you want from your machines. The idea is not just to get value in terms of money. It is about making sure that your equipment is in the optimum conditions and is running when you really need it to. This is something you can’t do without asset management.
