The Electric Arc industry is known for its high level of hazards. It involves the ionization of conductive electrical interconnections between electrodes of different potentials, phase relationships, or a combination of both, including the Earth. These arcs can generate various physical effects due to the intense heat produced, even in a fraction of a second. The radiant energy released during an electric arc event is immense. While it is widely understood that high voltage is dangerous, it is crucial to identify electrical hazards, assess the risks, and implement proper controls to prevent burns and other injuries.
To ensure safety, it is essential for electricians to have the appropriate ARC flash personal protective equipment (PPE) when facing the dangers associated with an electric arc. We offer a wide range of specially designed protective clothing tailored for the Electric Arc industry.
