PREFACE
Someone has rightly said that practical experience is far better and closer to the real world than mere theoretical exposure. The practical experience helps the student to view the real business world closely, which in turn widely influences his/her perceptions and understanding of the real situation. Research work constitutes the backbone of any management education program. A management student has to do research work quite frequently during his entire life span. The research work entitled “A study of Distribution Boards” aims to know about the manufacturing of distribution boards. The present report is a part of the project that contains the work done by me during the training period at Havells India Ltd. Faridabad. True to the core, a properly and executed industrial training helps a lot in providing linkage between the student and the industry. It develops the awareness of industrial approach to problem solving based on a board understanding of the mode of operation of industrial organization. This project has offered me an opportunity to put all my efforts and the theoretical knowledge to practice and enhance my knowledge, and at the same time, given me practical experience in the field of marketing. It is surely going to help me in my future projects too. In the preparation of this report, I have made every effort to ensure that all steps involved in development of this project are adequately covered and the report be completed in it. Any suggestions for improvement, if rendered, will be gratefully accepted. I sincerely hope that this project will prove pure knowledge imparting, through provoking and thus stimulating future research work on these guideline.

1.9) Safety Matter
Protection against Electrical Shocks and fire: With the ever increasing of the usage of electricity in our daily lives , the risk of electrical shocks and hazards related to electrical fire to overcrowded wiring and leakage due to installation failure. Poorly insulated apparatus, faulty wires or the incorrect use of an electrical device cause current to flow through the wrong face (i.e. through the insulation) to the earth. This current is called the "Leakage Current". Leakage current in an electrical system is responsible for two major risks.
• •
Risk of electrocution(electric shocks) Risk of fire
Risk of Electrocution (Electric shocks) Electrocution is the passage through human body, which is dangerous .The flow of current through human body, affects two vital functions
• •
Breathing Heart Beat XXIV
Electrocution can lead to muscle contraction causing respiratory paralysis, cardiac fibrillation and immediate cardiac arrest resulting in death depending upon the magnitude of the leakage current and the contract voltage. Risk of fire Poorly insulated wiring or loose connections are enough to create fire hazards a portion of the current which normally flows in the conductor can find a way back to the earth through these "leaks" and through materials with varying degrees of conductivity. These materials are not intended to conduct current, and may get heated up to such a degree that they will set fire to whatever they are in contact with (insulation, wood etc.). This is the start of fire. Solution Earth Leakage Circuit Breakers installed in the circuit senses these leakage currents and isolates the faulty circuit thereby ensuring safety against the hazards of earth leakage. It is mandatory to install an ELCB in the incoming circuit for all installations except those specified by the section 30 of the Indian Electricity Act, 1910.

PREFACE
Someone has rightly said that practical experience is far better and closer to the real world than mere theoretical exposure. The practical experience helps the student to view the real business world closely, which in turn widely influences his/her perceptions and understanding of the real situation. Research work constitutes the backbone of any management education program. A management student has to do research work quite frequently during his entire life span. The research work entitled “A study of Distribution Boards” aims to know about the manufacturing of distribution boards. The present report is a part of the project that contains the work done by me during the training period at Havells India Ltd. Faridabad. True to the core, a properly and executed industrial training helps a lot in providing linkage between the student and the industry. It develops the awareness of industrial approach to problem solving based on a board understanding of the mode of operation of industrial organization. This project has offered me an opportunity to put all my efforts and the theoretical knowledge to practice and enhance my knowledge, and at the same time, given me practical experience in the field of marketing. It is surely going to help me in my future projects too. In the preparation of this report, I have made every effort to ensure that all steps involved in development of this project are adequately covered and the report be completed in it. Any suggestions for improvement, if rendered, will be gratefully accepted. I sincerely hope that this project will prove pure knowledge imparting, through provoking and thus stimulating future research work on these guideline.

1.9) Safety Matter
Protection against Electrical Shocks and fire: With the ever increasing of the usage of electricity in our daily lives , the risk of electrical shocks and hazards related to electrical fire to overcrowded wiring and leakage due to installation failure. Poorly insulated apparatus, faulty wires or the incorrect use of an electrical device cause current to flow through the wrong face (i.e. through the insulation) to the earth. This current is called the "Leakage Current". Leakage current in an electrical system is responsible for two major risks.
• •
Risk of electrocution(electric shocks) Risk of fire
Risk of Electrocution (Electric shocks) Electrocution is the passage through human body, which is dangerous .The flow of current through human body, affects two vital functions
• •
Breathing Heart Beat XXIV
Electrocution can lead to muscle contraction causing respiratory paralysis, cardiac fibrillation and immediate cardiac arrest resulting in death depending upon the magnitude of the leakage current and the contract voltage. Risk of fire Poorly insulated wiring or loose connections are enough to create fire hazards a portion of the current which normally flows in the conductor can find a way back to the earth through these "leaks" and through materials with varying degrees of conductivity. These materials are not intended to conduct current, and may get heated up to such a degree that they will set fire to whatever they are in contact with (insulation, wood etc.). This is the start of fire. Solution Earth Leakage Circuit Breakers installed in the circuit senses these leakage currents and isolates the faulty circuit thereby ensuring safety against the hazards of earth leakage. It is mandatory to install an ELCB in the incoming circuit for all installations except those specified by the section 30 of the Indian Electricity Act, 1910.
