Course Summary

This ARC Flash Hazard Analysis training course will look upon the severity and adequate safety measures executed in the electrical installation. It shall comply with IEEE 1584 and NFPA 70E. Technology is also instrumental in preventing arc flash hazards. Electrical accident preventions are always placed, but accidents still take a toll on the persons working on the premises. Electricity is a familiar and necessary part of everyday life, but electricity can kill or severely injure people and cause damage to property. Hazard risk categories are of prime importance as it will determine the incident energy and type of personal protective gear.

Limits of approach will ensure safe distances while working in an electrical installation. These are simple precautions and personal protective equipment to be used when working with switchgear that can be taken to reduce the risk of arc flashes significantly. Proper and correct personal protective equipment is mandatory as it can save lives and prevent severe injuries. Arc flash hazards analysis and labeling can inculcate save working habits and eliminate flashovers.

This GLOMACS training course will highlight:

  • Causes of arc flash
  • Types of faults and its effect
  • Arc flash incidents
  • Limits of approach
  • Technology in reducing arc flashes
