2. Arc flash - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_flash

   The second method of selecting PPE is to perform an arc flash hazard calculation to determine the available incident arc energy. IEEE 1584 provides a guide to perform these calculations given that the maximum fault current, duration of faults, and other general equipment information is known.

3. Anti-flash gear - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-flash_gear

   Anti-flash gear, also known simply as flash gear, is basic personal protective equipment consisting of a fire-resistant hood and fire-resistant gloves, [1] often made of Nomex. The purpose of anti-flash gear is to provide protection to the head, neck, face and hands from short-duration flame exposure and heat.

4. Personal protective equipment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_protective_equipment

   Personal protective equipment (PPE) is protective clothing, helmets, goggles, or other garments or equipment designed to protect the wearer's body from injury or infection. The hazards addressed by protective equipment include physical, electrical, heat, chemical, biohazards , and airborne particulate matter .

5. Modacrylic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modacrylic

   One of the most interesting properties of Modacrylic fabrics is the arc flash protection, where it has very good values. Modacrylics are poor conductors of heat. The fabrics are soft, warm and resilient but are prone to pilling and matting. Modacrylics display high performance when it comes to appearance retention.

6. NFPA 70E - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFPA_70E

   Key principles covered are JSA/JHA/AHA procedures to ascertain shock protection boundaries, arc flash incident energy expressed in calories/cm2, lockout-tagout, and personal protective equipment. While the various OSHA, ASTM, IEEE and NEC standard provide guidelines for performance, NFPA 70E addresses practices and is widely considered as the ...

7. IEEE 1584 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_1584

   IEEE 1584-2018 is an update to IEEE 1584-2002 and was developed to help protect people from arc-flash hazard dangers. The predicted arc current and incident energy are used in selecting appropriate overcurrent protective devices and personal protective equipment (generally abbreviated as PPE), as well as defining safe working distance. Since ...
