How does this all relate to Eaton's PowerChain Managementâ„¢ solutions?
Eaton's PowerChain Managementâ„¢ solutions stress prevention, protection and preparation. Eaton's products, engineering experience, and industry know-how create a total arc flash solution to meet a company's needs. This is a system-wide, life-cycle approach to managing a company's entire chain of electrical systems to prevent power disturbances, and to make systems that are running, run more effectively - even when there are no power outages. Everything from wiring, switches, generators and power protection equipment, to monitoring and communications systems is part of a complete electrical power system. Virtually all facilities from residential and retail properties to data centers, healthcare centers, military base, airports or manufacturing facilities, has a power chain at its core.
Eaton's Arc Flash Hazard Analysis ensures reliability and safety of the PowerChain by focusing on:
Enhanced Safety - Improve your facility's overall arc flash safety through training, labeling, analysis and products that reduce or eliminate exposure to dangerous situations.
Cost Avoidance - Reduce or eliminate unplanned downtime, equipment damage, fines, lawsuits, injuries and fatalities through improved safety practices.
Risk Mitigation - Meet or exceed the standards from NFPA 70E-2004 "Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace" and IEEE 1584 "Guide for Performing Arc Flash Hazard Calculations".
