EN Approved Arc flash suit

Arc flash is a phenomenon where a flashover of electric current leaves its intended path and travels through the air from one conductor to another, or to ground. The results are often violent and when a human is in close proximity to the arc flash, serious injury and even death can occur.

Arc flash suits protect electrical workers from serious injuries or sicknesses that are caused from electrical and other common at-work hazards. To protect themselves from injury, or even death, workers should wear Protective Personal Equipment (PPE) as their last line of defence. The arc flash suit is arguably the most important component of PPE. It protects the majority of the worker’s body from the effects of an arc flash.
