PROTECTION AGAINST ARC FLASH

The following are used to determine the proper equipment for protecting against anelectric arc:• The maximum fault current value.• The phase/ground rated voltage at the site of the risk.• The distance between the source of the arc and the reception surface.• The AC cycle number and the mono or three-phase circuit type.• The location where the arc is produced (confined space).

After recording these parameters, we can estimate the level of risk and determinethe proper protective clothing and PPE to use: 12 to 100 cal/cm2 or class 1 or 2.

For more information, please contact our technical department.

The "Arc Flash" phenomenon.An electric arc follows a short circuit. It produces nearly instant effects with seriousconsequences without proper protection.

Arc Flash Protectionthe solution for complete electric arc protection

- The arc's main manifestation is its thermal effect. The heat energy released, which is proportional to the voltage, intensity, and fault length, can be considerable(19.000°C), melting the metal and charring the insulation.

- Blast effect, caused by the very rapid release of energy in a limited volume of air (similar to an explosion).

- Light effect with high ultraviolet and infrared radiation.- Ionisation effect that can trigger an arc on nearby active sections.

When electric arc danger exists, heat-resistant clothing must be worn.The arc's characteristics are given by:• The resistance value of the free arc, expressed in cal/cm2 according to NFPA 70 E,

ASTM standards, and IEC 61482-1-1.or• The protection class (1 or 2) with a constrained arc according to IEC 61482-1-2.
