ARC Flash Studies
Arc Flash Hazard Analysis is a method for identifying potential electrical hazards at each point in an electrical distribution system. Understanding the extent and scope of these hazards is a key component to a comprehensive safety plan to protect employees from serious injury or death that may result from arc flash electrical explosions. An explosion occurs when a fault develops in electrical equipment and discharges heat, pressure, sound, and molten metal in all directions around electrical equipment.
WHY PERFORM ARC FLASH HAZARD ANALYSIS:
● Meets OSHA requirements to protect employees who work on
and around electrical equipment
● Can reduce insurance liability
● Fulfills periodic electrical evaluations required by law
● Assists in identifying and reducing electrical problems before they lead
to unscheduled outages, OSHA safety concerns or an
Arc Flash event
