Arc Flash PPE Uncovered: Practical Strategies, Layering Secrets & Field Insights

We hosted a dynamic, interactive webinar designed to deepen participants’ understanding of arc flash Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and how it truly protects workers on the job. Whether attendees were new or returning from our first session, the event offered practical insights, compelling demonstrations, and real-world case studies that could help save lives.

What We Covered:

Engaged from the Start: We began by inviting participants to share their questions and objectives—what they wanted to learn on the day.

Refreshed and Built on Key Concepts: We provided a brief recap of essential topics such as ATPV, EBT, and the importance of preventing burns, along with a replay of our popular polycotton video.

Showed PPE in Action: We shared powerful videos demonstrating arc flash events and how PPE resists ignition and heat. We discussed why labels don’t tell the full story and explored the latest insights from testing.

Mastered Layering: Attendees discovered how combining layers affects protection—going beyond just the numbers on a label. We also covered which materials to avoid underneath PPE and how to make smarter, safer choices.

Learned from Experience: We delved into anonymised real-world incidents shared by industry leaders, and participants contributed their own stories through live polls.

Shifted Safety Mindsets: We encouraged a move beyond the “better than nothing” mindset towards smarter, more consistent habits that offer real protection every time.

Interactive Q&A Sessions: Throughout the webinar, attendees posed questions and engaged in discussions with safety experts and peers.

It was an engaging and informative session, packed with practical tips and evidence-based practices to strengthen arc flash safety.
