Protection starts with planning, not PPE

The best protection against arc flash is not working on live equipment at all. When live work cannot be avoided, the team needs a plan, a permit, the right distances and properly rated clothing. This course covers all four, in plain language, with examples from your own switchgear.

We also supply arc flash suits in several cal ratings and hand protection. Combine this course with lockout tagout training and an electrical safety audit.
