ARC FLASH PROTECTION

Awareness of the dangers of Arc Flash incidents and the need to protect your team with specialist Arc Flash protection is more important today than it has ever been. A focus on Arc Flash protection will only increase as you become more aware of the dangers an Arc Flash incident can pose.

A fundamental aspect of your role is to understand how these risks can be mitigated, whether you are operating in an industrial electrical, power generation or petrochemicals environment, breaking ground in a utility company or undertaking work on the railways.

Mitigating risk with safe working practices and by providing appropriate garments that offer superior Arc Flash protection saves lives every day.

Arc Flash - 4 P's Protect Predict Prevent Publish

THE 4P METHODOLOGY

The 4P methodology simplifies hazard assessments into four steps:

Predict
An educated prediction on the severity of an Arc Flash following an assessment.

Prevent
Prevent any damage through hazard mitigation. This includes reducing the risks and mitigating hazards.

Protect
Protect workers from residual hazards using PPE and procedures.

Publish
Publish the results with the wider team and provide training.

Protecting your team

If your team works with electric hazards, you need to know that they are fully protected against the thermal pressures of an Arc Flash and flash fire incident. Arc Flash protection is governed by EN 61482-2, a European Standard that is associated with two common testing methods: the Open Arc Test Method and the Box Test Method.

ALL OUR ARC STANDARDS

Purchasing products which conform to EN Standards guarantees your team is protected.

Depending on which sector you operate in, the EN Standards that matter to your business may differ slightly if your industry requires Arc Flash clothing. However, it’s vital that you equip your team with protective clothing that conforms to IEC 61482. This is the international standard applicable to Arc Flash and flash fire hazard protection.

All ProGARM Arc Flash garments are rigorously tested to the Open Arc and Box Arc methods, providing protection across our range. EN ISO 11612 certified garments provide protection against heat and flame. This protects against hazards including radiant heat, convective heat and splatters of molten metal, although it is not a substitute for clothing made to withstand high temperatures for longer periods of time.

The specifications for each standard that ProGARM Arc Flash garments conform to are provided both on our website and in our brochure. You can be sure that you’re equipping your team with clothing designed to protect them in the field, whichever sector you operate in.

CE CERTIFICATION

Only products that have the correct CE Certification markings are guaranteed to comply with European PPE legislation.

The three categories of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 which regulates PPE, take into consideration the complexity of protective equipment. Category 1 protective equipment for instance, is of simple design and used in situations where the user can determine the necessary protection level. Category 2, on the other hand, covers equipment that is neither simple nor complex. While this is subject to external assessment, it is not subject to any EC quality assurance system.

Category 3 protective equipment is signalled on ProGARM Arc Flash and flash fire garments by a four-digit number attached to the CE Marking. This number indicates that the piece of PPE is continually checked by the relevant independent body for conformity. All ProGARM’s PPE products comply with the requirements in the PPE Regulation (EU) 2016/425.
