Turnkey Arc Flash Safety Program
What Is an Arc Flash?
An arc flash is a sudden, destructive electric arc occurring in air space between electrical devices. During an incident:
- A blinding flash of light occurs
- Temperature soars to approximately 35,000°F within milliseconds
- A dynamite-level explosion happens with sound waves exceeding 160 dB
- Vaporized metal and shrapnel expel at bullet-like speeds
The Devastating Results
For unprepared personnel, arc flash consequences include:
- Death or serious injury to personnel
- Destroyed equipment and ruined products
- Litigation fees, insurance claims, and regulatory fines
- Emotional trauma and damaged reputation
Program Components
- Data Collection, NEC Safety Audit
- System Modeling and Studies (Short Circuit Study; Protective Device Coordination Study; Arc Flash Hazard Analysis)
- Single-Line Diagram, Study Report
- Label Creation, Installation
- Arc Flash Mitigation, PPE Recommendations
- NFPA 70E Safety Training (recommended)
- Safety Program Development (recommended)
- ReBEEMS EPPM Program (recommended)
All program phases are completed by in-house engineers and technicians. Each program undergoes final review by a licensed PE to ensure accuracy, providing a complete solution for mitigating arc flash hazards in workplaces.
