Arc Flash incidents — highly concentrated radiant thermal energy resulting from an arcing fault between two points — are potentially devastating events that kill or injure between five and ten people every day. Without an up-to-date Arc Flash Study, proper labeling of electrical equipment, and customized training, your business is at risk. Arc flashes can result in harm to employees and contractors, business disruption, costly damage to equipment and facilities, legal liability, and hefty fines.
Emerson Network Power, Liebert Services’ Arc Flash Studies are a vital tool for identifying and mitigating potential electrical hazards when employees or contractors work on or near energized conductors or circuits. By calculating the flash protection boundary inside which workers must use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), this study helps a data center comply with critical safety regulations.
