This video features an interaction between a foreman electrician and his apprentice concerning the apprentice's safety shoes.

The apprentice then performs a hammer test on the composite toe of the shoe to prove its protective capabilities and further explains that the shoes are EH (Electrical Hazard) rated for up to 18,000 volts for one minute, highlighting their suitability for electricians.
