Arc Flash controls for Glove and Barrier work

  • Arc Flash controls for Glove and Barrier work

    I am wondering what different companies are doing to limit the effects of arc flash when carrying out Glove and Barrier work? Is anyone using Arc Visors or using Hotstick’s for making and breaking connections or while doing any other tasks??

    We use visors for making / breaking connections and are moving towards using sticks more often when making the initial connection – once that connection is made we move in and make the connection permanent (ampac).

    Merry Christmas to you and your whanau
