Course Description
Our NFPA 70E Arc Flash Safety Training course delivers a thorough understanding of the risks involved in working on or near electrical conductors and equipment, with a strong emphasis on arc flash hazards. This training covers essential regulatory requirements aimed at protecting employees from these serious dangers.
Arc flash incidents occur when electric current veers off its intended path, traveling through the air between conductors or to the ground. This can result in a violent event that releases intense heat and bright light, leading to severe injuries or even fatalities.Industrial Training and OSHA Compliance Solutions: Your one-stop shop for workplace safety and compliance.
