Arc Flash Ratings – Crossovers and Grey Areas

Webinar

In celebration of Electrical Safety Month, we kicked off our brand-new webinar series with a session focused on one of the most critical aspects of protecting electrical workers – understanding arc flash ratings.


Cleaning your Arc Flash Kit & Equipment

Cleaning your Arc Flash Kit & Equipment

Resources

Arc flash clothing and PPE can be expensive, which is why it is important to properly take care of them. The highly engineered materials used to make these products require regular and effective cleaning in order to do their job of protecting the wearer from harm. This is because substances like chemicals, oil, and dirt can impact the effectiveness of the garments.

In addition to this, if numerous employees wear the same arc flash clothing or PPE, they could potentially transmit disease. This is why ensuring proper hygiene and cleanliness is a priority.

Competency in Wind Energy

Webinar
The wind sector alone has a growing trend of electrical incidents!

The primary focus of this session was to look at at electrical safety red spots in the wind sector. We discussed the importance of assessing ‘competence’ to ensure further electrical incidents in the Wind Sector do not take place.

How to put on a Safety Harness

Resources
We created a short step by step reminder video on how to wear a safety harness and make sure it’s fit properly to your body.

In the event of a fall, you want the fall arrest harness to arrest the harness as well as you. You do not want a situation where the harness stops and you keep on moving through the harness causing impact to the body.

Implementing your Electrical Safety Program

Webinar
The primary focus of this session was to look at setting the vision and enforcing electrical safety programs from a global and local standpoint. We touched on the importance of raising awareness and ways to influence all levels of the business to understand ‘why’.

This time, we had Global Electrical Leader Joe Cunningham from GE Renewable Energy supporting us. He focused on how to roll out a programme that is immune to "people changes," how to do it globally, the factors you should take into account, and much more.

We also had the honour of Ashley Smith, Terminal Electrical Engineering Manager at NationalGrid. Ashley concentrated on his personal implementation experience on a ground level, discussing Arc Flash studies, relays, and PPE with some situations for viewers to consider.

LinkedinLive: Arc Flash Awareness Review

Webinar
Each year too many people are being killed or seriously injured as the result of an Electric Arc Flash. An Electric Arc flash results from an arcing fault, where the electric arcs resulting in severe skin burns, hearing damage, and eye injuries.

The purpose of this presentation is to raise awareness of this increasingly hazardous risk that for many years has been ignored or dismissed as being too low frequency to be concerned about. An increase in fatalities is forcing us to consider the Arc Flash risk seriously and take steps to protect our people and equipment from these devastating events.

Within this presentation you will get a basic overview of the risk, the impact it has to human life and steps that you can take to mitigate against this potentially fatal risk. Ideally suited for anyone that works on or near live or potentially live electricity, or managers or purchases for people that do.

Creating your Electrical Safety Program

Webinar

Plan, Do, Check and Evolve serves as a solid foundation for continuous improvement and has application across many processes, but here we are looking at this model to help specifically address electrical safety.

Don’t wait for an accident or legal case before you have a thorough review of your current approach to electrical safety. Our approach has application across all aspects of electrical safety and provides a complete picture to help companies understand how to grow and maintain their electrical safety program.

Choosing the correct Arc Flash PPE

Choosing the correct Arc Flash PPE

Resources
Most people that work with electricity are well aware of the danger that an Arc Flash incident possess. Whilst, they may recognise that they need to wear PPE when working in those environments where there is the potential for an Arc Flash to occur, very few are actually aware of what the requirement are.
Matching Arc Flash PPE to the risk

Matching your Arc Flash PPE to the risk

Resources
Regardless of the industry, PPE is often seen as the very last line of defence for workers and yet it is often the difference between a ‘near miss’ and a serious injury or even a fatality. It is because of the incredible protection which PPE offers, that employers are required by law to provide it to their staff when working in environments that are potentially hazardous.
