						  360 degrees, such as rubber-tired backhoe, is not considered to be an
						  excavator.

(2) The inspection procedure for excavators
						in regular service is divided into 2 general classifications based upon the
						intervals and inspection that should be performed. The intervals in turn are
						dependent upon the nature of the critical components of the excavator and the
						degree of their exposure to wear, deterioration, or malfunction. The 2 general
						classifications are designated in these rules as "frequent" and "periodic,"
						with respective intervals between inspections as follows:
(a) Frequent inspection - daily to monthly
						intervals.
(b) Periodic inspection
						- 1 to 12-month intervals, or as specifically recommended by the
						manufacturer.

Rule 1601.
(1)
					 The occupational safety and health standards contained in this part apply to
					 the construction of electric transmission and distribution lines and
					 equipment.
(2) As used in this
					 part, the term "construction" includes the erection of new electric
					 transmission and distribution lines and equipment and the alteration,
					 conversion, and improvement of existing electric transmission and distribution
					 lines and equipment.
(3) Existing
					 electric transmission and distribution lines and electrical equipment need not
					 be modified to conform to the requirements of applicable standards in this part
					 until such work as described in subrule (2) of this rule is to be performed on
					 such lines or equipment.
(4) The
					 standards set forth in this part provide minimum requirements for safety and
					 health. Employers may require adherence to additional standards which are not
					 in conflict with the standards contained in this part.
(5) This standard does not apply to
					 communication lines defined as the conductors and their supporting or
					 containing structures that are used for public or private signal or
					 communication service, that operate at potentials not exceeding 400 volts to
					 ground or 750 volts between any 2 points of the circuit, and the transmitted
					 power of which does not exceed 150 watts. When operating at less than 150
					 volts, no limit is placed on the capacity of the system. Telephone, telegraph,
					 railroad signal, data, clock, fire, police-alarm, community television antenna,
					 and other systems conforming with this subrule are examples of communication
					 lines. Lines used for signaling purposes, but not included in this definition,
					 are considered as supply lines of the same voltage and are to be so
					 run.
