Arc Flash Clothing is a dedicated form of personal protective equipment that’s designed to minimise injury during an arc fault. The question is… are yours?

Here are 3 signs your Arc Flash PPE may not be offering the protection you need.

Part 2 of the Skanwear / MR Power Tech collaboration. This time we dive deeper into the initial phases prior to the Arc Flash Analysis. 

The risk is so pronounced within the Solar Industry due to the DC circuits found within typical PV installations, which can both generate and sustain arcs. DC circuits present a greater challenge than AC circuits due to the constant-current source rather than constant voltage, which makes calculating arc energies difficult.

So just what are some of the biggest Arc Flash risks for Solar Industry Personnel?
