Overview

 

An Arc Flash is a sustained flow of electrical current through the air than can create a temperature of 35,000°F or 20,000°C in less than 0.1 second.  A distinctive sound with a noise level of 160 dB accompanies the flash and the heat is enough to vaporize copper!

More than 2,000 people each year are admitted to burn centers with severe Arc Flash burns, and it is estimated that several die each year due to Arc Flash incidents.  Perhaps most important is that you might be exposed to this type of hazard every day in your work environment.

It is for these reasons that OSHA in conjunction with the National Fire Protection Association developed the safety standards that became known as NFPA 70E.

In this two-hour webinar, we’ll cover the key sections of NFPA 70E and its implications.  You’ll learn the safety regulations that are meant to protect you and your coworkers on the job and at home as we go far beyond the “Lock Out – Tag Out” provisions of 70E.

This is an interesting and lively discussion for both experienced engineers and those for who are newer to our profession.
