Why attend this event?

The danger of an arc flash (Arc Flash) is one of the biggest and most impactful risks when working on or near electrical installations. Many companies now have the theory in order by means of an arc flash calculation, but get stuck in practice. Because what do you do after that calculation?

During this Power Topic, we translate abstract figures into concrete safety measures on the shop floor. We will discuss physical hazards, policies, standards and how to ensure that your employees can actually perform their work safely. No commercial presentations, but in-depth content and practical tools that you can use immediately.

What will be covered?

  • Flame arcs in practice: How do you practically arrange policies, work processes and personal protective equipment (PPE) in the workplace?
  • From theory to action: You have had an arc flash calculation (Arc Flash Hazard Analysis) carried out... and now what? How do you turn this report into workable procedures?
  • Arc Blast hazards: Often forgotten, but not to be underestimated. We discuss the risks of an Arc Blast to the immediate environment.

Who is this event for?

  • Installation Supervisors (IV) and Works Supervisors (WV)
