Arc Flash Appreciation Training (ARC)
ARC
Many employers are implementing arc flash PPE for electrical personnel even though there is no European standard. This one-day course covers the arc flash risk assessment described in IEEE 1584, as well as examples of incident energy and flash protection boundary calculations. Methods used to calculate fault energy at points on the system are also examined.
Course content
- Appreciation of the arc flash hazard
- Hazards of electricity for arc flash study
