Arc Flash Evaluation Poster

Arc flash evaluation is a key aspect of assessing the safety of an electrical system. An arc flash occurs when a short circuit results in large amounts of unexpected current in a conductor leading to a massive release of energy. By conducting an arc flash evaluation engineers are able to design safer systems and determine the level of protective equipment that a worker needs to wear in order to survive an arc flash incident.
