Is the Arc Flash Study Date Required to Be on the Labels?
If there is no date on arc flash labels, how does the site electrician ensure the label is within the 5-year review period or other review requirements as defined in NFPA 70E?
Join Us for a FREE NFPA 70E Workshop in Portland, Oregon
Get a fresh start in 2020 by joining us at this year’s first NFPA 70E Workshop. This free event will feature speakers Hugh Hoagland and Brandon Schroeder, who will discuss topics related to NFPA 70E, PPE best practices, and a real-life arc flash incident.
About the Speakers:
Hugh Hoagland is among the world’s foremost experts on arc testing and electrical safety. He is a senior partner and co-founder of e-Hazard, a leading electrical safety training and consulting firm, and the founder of ArcWear, which does 90% of the world’s arc flash testing of protective apparel.
Brandon Schroeder was completing a routine electrical task — not something he considered dangerous or out of the ordinary — and that simple act resulted in a horrific event that should have killed him. Schroeder will discuss what went wrong, what he and his family went through and what he learned from the experience. Schroeder sees a general lack of day-to-day hazard awareness among electricians, and he believes his experience can help prevent other injuries.
