Arc Flash Studies  Want us to call you

Objective:

The Arc Flash Analysis used to determine worst case arc flash energy levels. Arc Flash Analysis identifies and analyzes high risk arc flash areas in your electrical power system

Scope of Study

  • Arcing fault magnitude
  • Device clearing time
  • Duration of arc
  • Arc flash boundary
  • Working distance
  • Incident energy
  • Limited approach boundary
  • Restricted approach boundary
  • Prohibited approach boundary
  • Recommendations for new equipment and/or system changes necessary to reduce the calculated arc flash energy level below 40 cal/cm2, where possible. General recommendations for arc flash hazard reduction will also be discussed.

Arc Flash Hazard Warning Label Generation:

Labels will be 4 inch X 4 inch thermal transfer type label of high adhesion polyester for each work location analyzed and will be machine printed, with no field markings. The label shall have an orange header with the wording, “WARNING, SHOCK & ARC FLASH HAZARD”, and shall include the following Location designation

  • Nominal voltage
  • Arc flash boundary
  • Incident energy
  • Working distance
  • Limited approach boundary
  • Restricted approach boundary
  • Prohibited approach boundary
  • Engineering report number, revision number and issue date.
