Insulating Glove Classes
Apologies if this has already been asked but I could only find discussion around Class 1.
We are just having a discussion around what others use for 22kV and 66kV, I note gloves only seem to go to as far as Class 4 40kV.
We currently issue 0, 1, 2, & 4 but now with 22kV in some areas we are being asked if Class 3 might be more appropriate. I would say just use Class 4, save money and it’s for switching not doing up nuts and bolts…
That also then raised the question of Class 4 for 66kV not being high enough for the rated phase-phase voltage.
Interested to know others approach.
Thanks in advance 🙂
