Flame arches

Optimal resistance to electric arcs

Arcs are powerful electrical discharges that can occur when working with low-, medium-, or high-voltage equipment. They cause intense heat, flashes of light and pressure waves. This can lead to serious physical damage such as burns and eye injuries, or even death.

Wearing PPE specifically designed to withstand the effects of electric arcs is crucial for worker safety. These PPE reduces the risk of injury due to their heat-resistant materials and construction. This significantly reduces the impact of an arc incident and promotes a safe working environment.

To properly deal with risks, we offer specialised PPE solutions that comply with relevant safety standards and regulations. These are designed to withstand the intense temperatures and pressure levels of an electric arc, providing crucial protection for workers.

We can perform detailed calculations and simulations of arc flash to determine the specific energy levels at different work locations, ensuring the right personal protective equipment is used for each situation. This proactive approach not only improves worker safety, but also helps prevent costly equipment damage and downtime.
