Industry Terms Explained – INHERENT
When it comes to Arc flash protection Volt Safety recommends the use of Inherent FR Fabric. Inherent FR Fabric means that the FR properties will not be diminished when the Arc flash PPE is laundered. Take for example Arc flash fabrics that have been treated with FR sprays. These fabrics
Exploring the Range of Arc Flash Hoods
We offer three types of arc flash hoods: Standard, Vented, and Lift Up, to keep you safe from the heat and energy of an arc flash in any work situation. Standard Arc Flash Suit Hood Ideal for general electrical work environments where the risk of arc flash is present but
Understanding Arc Flash Layering.
Arc Flash Layering effectively enhances protection against electrical hazards. This method involves combining multiple arc-rated garments to achieve a higher level of arc flash protection. Why is Layering Important? Layering is key for Arc Flash Safety. It lets you meet specific safety levels when the right gear isn’t easy to
How do I know what rating Arc Flash PPE to wear?
To calculate likely incident energy from a switchboard is time consuming, onerous, and technical. Variables include voltage, current, fault current, switchboard materials, switchboard opening dimensions and much more. Australian Standards acknowledges this, by virtue of AS4836, which gives a layman, conservative approach to choosing arc flash equipment in table 9.1.
Which is the correct Arc Flash standard to follow?
What is IEE1584? IEEE1584 is the industry accepted ‘Guide for Performing Arc-Flash Hazard Calculations’. This guide provides mathematical models for designers and facility operators to apply in determining the arc-flash hazard distance and the incident energy to which workers could be exposed during their work on or near electrical equipment.
What is an Arc Flash and why is it dangerous?
What on earth is an Arc Flash, and how do I choose the right PPE? Arc Flash clothing and PPE is not an easy product to select. Whilst most electrical PPE (insulated gloves, mats, sleeves) is chosen based on working voltage, Arc Flash is not. Arc flash calculations are complex, time

Steering Wheel Lockout: A Critical Safety Measure
Ensuring the safety of vehicles during maintenance or restricted operation is a crucial responsibility in many industries. One of the most effective ways to achieve this is by using steering wheel lockouts. But what exactly are they, and why are they so essential? Let’s dive in. What is Steering Wheel Lockout? Steering wheel lockout refers
The Convenience of Insulated Composite Gloves in Electrical Safety.
When working with electrical equipment, safety is critical. Traditionally, the three-glove system has been the go-to for many workers. This system, based on the ASTM D120 standard, involves wearing three layers: a cotton inner glove, a rubber insulating glove, and a leather outer glove for mechanical protection. While this method is effective, it can be
Insulated Ladders in the Electrical Workplace in Australia
What is an Insulated Ladder? Insulated ladders are essential tools designed to provide a safer working environment for those around electricity. These ladders are constructed from non-conductive materials, such as fibreglass, which prevents the ladder from becoming a conductor of electricity. In electrical workplaces, where the risk of contact with live wires or electrical equipment
The Importance of EV Rescue Kits
EV Rescue Kits are vital for ensuring safety when responding to electrical incidents involving electric vehicles (EVs). These kits are specifically designed to protect the rescuer while allowing them to assist the injured service technician safely. Here’s why EV Rescue Kits are so important: In summary, EV Rescue Kits are an essential part of safety
