Tech/Engineering - Electronics / Elect Eng / Instructions for work on electrical fittings & panels
Danish term or phrase: L-AUS(Be' om hurtig hjælp! :-) )
Jeg er ved at oversætte en instruktionspræsentation. Det går meget godt bortset fra, at jeg ikke aner hvad emnet er. ;-) Hvad er 'L-AUS'? Jeg har fundet en definition, der lyder 'arbejde under spænding'. Betyder det, at det skal være live/energized kredsløb?

Eksempler:
1) L-AUS regler ved arbejde på tavler og installationer
2) medarbejdere, der skal arbejde på eller nær ved tavleanlæg under spænding skal instrueres i L-AUS-bestemmelserne

Mange mange tak for hjælpen!

I cannot give you an abbreviation that corresponds tothe Danish one. Possibly a specialist can, but this is not one of my specialist areas.

Depending on the target readers and the space available, I might not use an abbreviation in the translation.
Given that this is potentially a highly dangerous procedure, and it is very important that the reader should understand it, I would make quite sure that the full version is clearly indicated somewhere.

3.5 Safe work method statement (SWMS)
The OHS Regulation requires safe work method statements for ‘live electrical work’
that is carried out in the interests of safety and high risk construction work, which
includes work on or near that part of an energised electrical installation.
A safe work method statement is required for electrical wiring work on an electrical installation at a
construction site.

Jeg ved ikke, om det her er til hjælp, eller om du allerede ved det, men det kan måske også hjælpe, hvis der er nogen, der søger udtrykket i KudoZ senere.

Jeg ved ikke (endnu), hvad det hedder på engelsk. :-)
