Practical approaches to mitigating arc flash exposure white paper

A total solution approach can mitigate the risk of an arc flash

To reduce the arc flash energy level, there are several design options, retrofit methods, and work procedures one can implement. These options are based on reducing potential arc fault energy and following established safety practices.

Arc flash hazard calculations quantify the potential risk and show that excessive high arc flash incident energy that may necessitate the de-energizing of the equipment before maintenance can be performed.

System design, equipment modifications, alternate protection settings and changing work methods can significantly lower the probability of an arc flash incident.

This white paper will discuss solutions that can be applied to prevent or reduce arc flash hazards and the associated damage to equipment and injury to personnel.

Learn how introducing appropriate safe systems, updating the ways of working and planning proper maintenance programme can mitigate the arc flash exposure.
