Why is Training Required?

The results of an arc flash burn are devastating and should be avoided at all costs by thoroughly training your employees and preparing your workplace with the necessary precautions. The deadly temperature of an arc flash can reach as high as 35,000 degrees Fahrenheit!

Through proper training with one of our NFPA 70E trainers, we can reduce the chance of an arc flash occurring by using engineering controls, administrative controls, and appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). Our arc flash training will cover what an arc flash is, why it occurs, what OSHA requires (OSHA 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 1910 Subpart S), prevention methods, proper labeling according to Section 110.16 of the 2008 National Electrical Code, appropriate tools/equipment and how to calculate for the degree of an arc flash hazard. If your employees are exposed to electrical hazards, contact us today for more information on arc flash training prevention.
