Help Prevent Worker Injuries Due to Electrical Equipment Failure | Become Arc-Flash Compliant
What is an arc flash, and why does EDG’s electrical division excel against the competition in providing arc-flash services?
An arc flash is a massive release of energy due to electrical current traveling through the air between electrical components at different potentials. If you are exposed to an arc flash, you may be exposed to temperatures up to 35,000 degrees Fahrenheit and explosive energy comparable to a blast of dynamite. Each day, 5-10 arc flash incidents occur in the United States and 2,000 workers annually are admitted to burn centers with severe arc-flash burns. Understanding the dangers, increasing worker awareness and reducing existing hazard levels are essential to the safety of those who work around electrical equipment.
EDG has the team of experts with experience in many industries and types of facilities and the knowledge to help you become Arc-Flash Compliant. We will work with you to tailor a program to meet the needs of your company or organization and comply with relevant safety standards, avoid citations and fines, and minimize the impact on your staff and operations.
