Arc Flash Protection
Mitchell Instrument Co offeres a wide range of Arc Flash Protection for your everyday needs. We have everything that will keep you safe and protected from head to toe.
A large number of serious electrical injuries and fatalities are caused by electrical arcscreated during short circuits and switching procedures. As a result, NFPA 70E Sections110.8(B)(1)(b) and 130.3(B), as well as NESC ANSI C2-2007 Section 410.A.3 are publishedstandards requiring you to perform an Arc-Flash Hazard Analysis (AFHA). IEEE Std. 1584provides guidance for performing arc-flash calculations. The regulatory driving force behindthese standards is found in OSHA 29 CFR 1910.132(d) and 1910.335.
Effective as of January 1, 2009, the employer shall ensure that an assessment is performedto determine potential exposure to an electric arc for employees who work on or nearenergized parts or equipment. If the assessment determines a potential employee exposuregreater than 2 cal/cm exists (see Neal, Bingham, and Doughty [B59]), the employer shallrequire employees to wear clothing or a clothing system that has an effective arc rating notless than the anticipated level of arc energy."The analysis will:
Identify the risk of personnel injury as a result of exposure to incident energy released during an arc flash event for each specific electrical componenIdentify the current appropriate ratings of personal protective equipment (PPE Establish the Flash Protection Boundary (approach limit distance) as required by NFPA70E Provide equipment specific environment and chemical arc-flash hazard warning labelsper NEC Section 110.16 requirements Provide methods to mitigate the hazard risk, where applicable, in order to reduce PPEratings.
