Which protective equipment, such as insulated tools, protective shields, and rubber insulating equipment used for protection from unintentional contact, is covered in 130.7(D)?

• A. I / 130.7(B)
• B. Other / 130.7(D)
• C. Other / 130.7(C)
• D. Additional / 130.7(A)

Answer: (B)

You’re being tested on how PPE is categorized in NEC 130.7. 130.7(C) covers PPE for arc-flash and related protective gear such as arc-rated clothing, face and eye protection, head protection, and shock protection. The protective equipment described in 130.7(D) is “Other protective equipment” used for protection from unintentional contact with energized parts, including insulated tools, protective shields, and rubber insulating equipment. That match is why the correct option is the one that identifies “Other” and cites 130.7(D). The other sections address different aspects of PPE, so they don’t apply to these items.
