Which of these components is NOT part of a shock risk assessment?

The development of repair cost estimates is not considered a part of a shock risk assessment in the context of NFPA 70E. A shock risk assessment primarily focuses on identifying potential electrical hazards and the risk they pose to personnel. This includes identifying shock hazards, estimating the likelihood of injury, and determining additional protective measures that can be implemented to mitigate those risks.

The process of conducting a shock risk assessment aims to enhance safety by evaluating conditions under which electric shock might occur and ensuring that adequate precautions are taken to protect workers. Elements such as identifying shock hazards help in recognizing specific electrical dangers, while assessing the likelihood of injury helps in quantifying the risks involved. Additionally, considering protective measures ensures that appropriate solutions are in place to reduce or eliminate the identified risks.

While understanding repair costs may be important for financial or operational planning, it does not contribute directly to the evaluation of electrical safety or the risk to employees, which is the core goal of a shock risk assessment.
