Add distance for safety – outside the arc flash boundary

The #EatonTechTalk will look at getting the electrical worker outside of the arc flash boundary when performing tasks such as those related to establishing an electrically safe work condition.  Closing and opening the OCPD or switch does not have to be performed while standing in front of the equipment.

The best method to avoid an arc flash is to get the electrical worker outside of the arc flash boundary.

This session will take an in depth review of operating remotely.  We’ll look at the methods, materials, options and have a discussion around all the details needed to get the worker outside of the arc flash boundary.

Our special guest for this session will be Russ Safreed, General Manager with CBS ArcSafe.  You won’t wanna miss this one.
