Arc Flash Analysis

Calculate incident energy and protect personnel working on your live network by providing them with the correct PPE. Industry-standard methodologies such as IEEE 1584 or NFPA 70E can be employed to conduct this assessment.

Introduction to Arc Flash Analysis

Arc Flash Analysis is a critical component of electrical safety in power systems. This analysis involves assessing the potential hazards of arc flash incidents, which occur when an electric arc causes a sudden release of energy. The goal is to identify and mitigate risks to ensure the safety of personnel and equipment. Our analyses are conducted in accordance with industry standards such as IEEE 1584 and NFPA 70E.

Importance of Arc Flash Analysis

Conducting an Arc Flash Analysis is essential for several reasons. It helps in determining the incident energy levels and establishing safe working distances, which are crucial for selecting appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). By understanding the potential hazards, engineers can implement effective safety measures to protect workers and prevent equipment damage
