E.4.2 The length of a restraint lanyard should be such that, when connected to the selected anchor point, it is long enough to allow the user to carry out the intended work but short enough to prevent a situation where a fall might have to be arrested. The restriction of travel should be determined, e.g. by measuring the distance from the anchor point to the closest point at which there could be a risk of a fall from a height. The length of the restraint lanyard should be limited to less than that distance when measured from the anchor point to the attachment point on the user’s body- holding device, which may be a simple belt or a harness.The range of broadly horizontal travel can sometimes be extended by the use of a E.4.3 horizontal anchor line to which the restraint lanyard is attached, e.g. by an appropriate connector. However, great care should be taken when using horizontal anchor lines to ensure any sag in the line,© IRATA InternationalAnnex E: page 4 of 82013-Dec-01
